But you are correct to highlight the importance of this of course, and I'm heartened to hear you mention the massive cluster of scientific knowledge that will all be concentrated on one tiny block of Moncton with the hospital, U de M, DFO, the new ocean sciences centres and ACRI all within pissing distance of each other. To me, this is MASSIVE and the financial, educational and business repercussions will be felt across all of NB and beyond.
Just a few years ago ACRI people would talk about their struggle to attract private and public funding. They weren't even on the radar. Now they'll be in the centre of a radar that encompasses all of the above centres of R&D.

Could a new government affect this?
