The provincial election campaign officially begins Thursday, but Premier Brian Gallant launched his party’s campaign Sunday, and all the parties have been in pre-election mode for weeks.

The Liberals promised today to provide free second-language training if re-elected.

Gallant says it could help attract investment and bring jobs to the province because of a bilingual workforce.

The Progressive Conservatives and the Green Party are also both expected to make announcements today.

The Tories say their first campaign announcement will be at Carleton Park on Fredericton’s north side, while the Green Party plans to launch its campaign with the opening of its Fredericton regional campaign office by leader David Coon.

The NDP says it will launch the official campaign Thursday, so far nominating 29 candidates with plans to run 49 in the vote expected on Sept. 24.
