Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the industries in Carleton-Charlotte that have recently expanded, announced expansion or have rebuilt.
Sabian Cymbals in Meductic, New Brunswick has relocated its new, expanded and ultra modern facility, employing an addition 12-15 people. McCain Foods recently announced that it will substantially expand its Florenceville, New Brunswick data processing centre, thus allowing for the addition of 30 new employees. Briggs and Little Woolen Mills of York Mills recently rebuilt following its fall of 1994 fire, and will soon be reopening, allowing for several area jobs.
These and the many other examples in Carleton-Charlotte, indicate the upward trend of economic growth and job creation.
We offer our congratulations to these companies and to the hundreds of other companies across Canada that are expanding, creating economic growth and productive full time jobs.
