Stockholm Sweden has been named the most intelligent city by a New York think-tank--beating out Fredericton and Moncton. The two provincial cities were among seven finalists for the smartest city. Premier Shawn Graham says he's proud of our success, non-the-less.

Graham is on a trade mission in New York, where he says he's learning a lot about the energy market there.  The Premier says he's confident meetings with companies in the Big Apple will bring about positive returns for the province--and--says many businesses are planning to visit the province to scope out the energy projects.
