I 100% agree that SJ has turned the corner, and is on the path for continuous virtuous growth.
This however does not mean that growth in Moncton and Freddy is going to stall. Our momentum will also continue.
Location is Moncton's virtue. The port is Saint John's. Government and UNB is Freddy's. Depending on the year, and on economic conditions, there may be some years when Freddy comes out on top, and other years when SJ does, but, I am willing to bet that the majority of the time Moncton will have the higher growth rate.
Moncton has a very diverse economy which is difficult to kill.
In any event, I am happy to see SJ starting to take off again. For NB to prosper, all three cities will have to do well.
