About the succession connect program that the chamber of commerce is leading, I haven't spoken to them directly about it, but in the Campbellton area they were doing a similar program a few years ago that was mostly for grocery stores, corner stores, etc., connecting people, future entrepreneurs, with business owners who were looking at retiring. I spoke to them at length about how we might be able to adapt a similar model to agriculture, where farm businesses would be included. At least in that conversation, they weren't even going there, but there is definitely a lot of opportunity. I haven't gone to the Fredericton Chamber of Commerce yet to explore that, no.
