New Brunswick’s Progressive Conservative leader was targeted by his two main opponents during Wednesday’s roundtable discussion, forced to defend his record on issues such as health care, housing and public safety.Premier since 2018, Blaine Higgs is asking voters for a third term in office, and he regularly boasted to the two other party leaders that his six balanced budgets have permitted his government to save money on debt payments and make important investments in such things as the health system.
