Hundreds participated in Walk the Block rallies in Hillsborough and Riverside-Albert (seen here) in Albert County in early 2013 to show their opposition to the granting of approvals for oil and gas development in the county and province. Hillsborough Village Council passed a resolution in March calling upon the government of New Brunswick to stop all approved gas and oil activities within 4 km of village limits and 4 km from water supplies, both above and below ground. According to Minister of Energy and Mines Craig Leonard, there are no justifications to cease oil and gas activity at this point. Photo by Deborah Carr.
