FREDERICTON — New Brunswick Premier Brian Gallant is getting married.

Gallant, who is in his mid-30s, posted the news Monday in both official languages on his Twitter feed, and his office later confirmed it.

In the tweet, Gallant says Karine Lavoie said "yes" to spending the rest of her life with him.

He says both he and his dog Blaze couldn't be happier.
