This change is significant, and, will certainly drive traffic on the Confederation Bridge, particularly between PEI and Moncton. Lots of Islanders will feel a whole lot better about coming over to visit Champlain Place and Costco, and lots of Monctonians will now not give any second thoughts to going over to the island for a round of golf, or to go to the beaches on a day trip. Cavendish Beach is only one hour 45 minutes away!. It's no further than a drive to Saint John from Moncton. I know I will more seriously consider day trips now.
This is what this is all about - driving interprovincial commerce to help thwart economic decline in the face of Drumpfian tariffs.
