Trade and Convention Centre Losing Bids Due To Lack Of Renovations

Ross Jefferson with the Destination Marketing Organization says the city is losing out on conference dollars because the Trade and Convention Centre needs renovations.

He says hopefully the investment dollars will be coming in, be it from the provincial or federal government.


The city is committing 3-million dollars towards refurbishment if the province and the feds provide an equal share.

He says the centre is fantastic but it was built 27-years ago and deals have been lost due to the look of the building.
