🚢 Cruise ships

No confirmed cruise-ship call for Saint John today was found in the current available information. I’m therefore not listing a ship as confirmed. This is separate from St. John’s, Newfoundland, which has an Azamara Journey call today.

👮 Police & public safety

Confirmed local update: the City has issued a Germain Street traffic advisory for today. Northbound Germain Street between King Street and Grannan Street will be closed to through traffic from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Businesses remain open.

I did not find a new major Saint John Police Force incident release this morning, so there is no new major police incident being reported here as confirmed.

📰 Important local news

Fuel prices: New Brunswick’s weekly adjustment increased the maximum regular self-serve price by 0.1¢/L, leaving it around $1.86/L.

Community issue: A recent Saint John story has raised concerns about an encampment on private property, including garbage and questions about responsibility for cleanup and safety. This remains a developing community issue rather than a new incident today.

🎭 Events

Fundy Fringe Festival continues through Saturday, August 22, with performances around Uptown Saint John.

Important cancellation: The City has cancelled the Community Kitchen Party in Rockwood Park, which had been scheduled for Saturday, August 22, because of unforeseen circumstances.
