TD Bank Group and the Saint John Sea Dogs have entered into a five-year sponsorship agreement which includes the naming rights for Harbour Station.
The announcement was made in the east parking lot outside the home of the Q league team by TD Bank Group Deputy Chair Frank McKenna.

McKenna says TD wants to help put the swagger back in Saint John.
TD will be hosting minor practices with the Sea Dogs, elevate the in-game Sea Dogs experience through music events and more.
McKenna and Sea Dogs owner Scott McCain then took part in a ceremonial face-off with Mayor Don Darling as the referee.
McKenna was asked by reporters afterwards what the new name for Harbour Station might be, but he remained pretty tight-lipped when it came to that.
