And not to again criticise Moncton's addiction to sprawl, as I remember seeing a community garden project in Truro that utilised mature trees from newly deforested areas in Bible Hill, but Moncton's future infrastructural projects mostly involve clearing large portions of land; essentially, there would be plenty of opportunity to relocate healthy, mature specimens to the riverfront -- saving on the cost of new trees.

The Moncton Museum is being expanded (new Transportation Discovery Centre). About a half dozen trees are going to be removed and all but one of them are going to be transplanted to the Riverfront Park.
I see great potential in the future for expanding the Riverfront Park to the west ( the old dump AKA "Mount Rideout"). This area should all be treed.
