MARTA members met on Middle Island in the Miramichi River for a relaxed get-together under sunny skies and warm temperatures. The outing was catered by “Mind Full of Food” chef Brian Matheson, who provided a bountiful supply of delicious snacks along with tea, coffee, juice, and water. The conversation was light with lots of laughter mixed with memories of friends and colleagues departed.

Group Insurance Rates for 2026![]()
The New Brunswick Society of Retired Teachers (NBSRT), on behalf of the NBTF Group Insurance Trustees, is forwarding the 2026 Group Insurance Renewal Rates directly to its members to ensure that everyone has timely access to this important information.
Although the NBTF Group Insurance Trustees have already mailed a communiqué outlining the updated rates, the ongoing rotating postal strikes across the province may mean that delivery cannot be guaranteed before the new rates take effect with the December 24th pension deposit.
Because many members rely on this information to understand and plan for changes to their monthly deductions, NBSRT felt it was essential to provide an additional, reliable method of communication.
By circulating the rates through our own channels, we aim to prevent delays, reduce uncertainty, and ensure that all members—regardless of postal service disruptions—receive clear, accurate details about the upcoming adjustments. This proactive approach reflects NBSRT’s commitment to keeping members well-informed![]()
