The Premier touting the importance behind the Huntsman Marine Science Centre in St. Andrews.
Between the federal and provincial governments, over $6.6 million dollars was recently announced for the Centre, to grow operations and education programs.
Premier Gallant says the investment will not only create a research cluster, but create jobs in Charlotte County. “Well this fits a perfect part of our Economic Growth Plan, to invest in research and development is going to ensure that we can innovate, it’s going to ensure that we can make our industries as competitive as possible, and it demonstrates as well that we’re going to be focused on creating good-paying jobs.”
Gallant says the Huntsman plays an important role in the community with tourism, awareness, and research, and will continue to do great things.
