“community access centres”, etc.<br />

The core of the structure for support is<br />
really in the individual civilians of the<br />
Province of New Brunswick. It lies in their<br />
desire to regain their status as one of the<br />
richest provinces of Canada. The people<br />
of New Brunswick take great pride in the<br />
rise of this new industry.<br />
At the beginning of the idea formation is a<br />
group of six original strategic thinkers.<br />
These six people are still very active to<br />
create the industry, and hence provide for<br />
new jobs in the province. The industry is<br />
now third and on the edge of outgrowing<br />
the second biggest industry of Tourism in<br />
the province.<br />
