Canada Games Stadium Cash Closer

It appears the federal and provincial governments are moving closer to some kind of funding announcement for the six million dollar upgrade of the Canada Games Stadium. Premier Graham tells CHSJ News it's definitely on the to do list and his government is whittling away the long list of priorities.Meantime -- Saint John M-P Rodney Weston is sounding optimistic about an announcement. Weston says it's something that he's been working on for some time along with provincial Tourism Minister Stuart Jamieson and he's feeling good about it.Supporters of the project are hoping to have the upgrade completed in time for hosting the Acadien Games next summer -- meantime -- we are being told the official word could be coming early next week.
