With impeccable timing, former New Brunswick premier, Frank McKenna has just reflected on his time in office.

McKenna resigned 10 years to the day after first winning power in 1987.

“I knew that increasingly I was becoming less collaborative, that all the forces coming at you make you retrench and rely on a very small circle of advisers,” he told the New Brunswick Telegraph Journal’s Adam Huras this week. “I knew that was happening to me. I didn’t feel unloved. I just felt personally that I was not quite the same person that started that journey.”
