Saint John getting a visit from the Canadian Ambassador in Washington, Gary Doer who was the keynote speaker before a large gathering of businesspeople at the Trade and Convention Centre.

Doer says Atlantic Canada is well positioned to take advantage of the energy demand in New England if the provinces work together. He points out New England imports 11 billion dollars worth of energy from Atlantic Canada and 35 per cent of its natural gas comes from this region.

He adds the Americans are looking for energy security which they can't get from the Middle East.

Doer told businesspeople at the Trade and Convention Centre the incoming chair of the Congressional Energy Committee who's a Republican is, in his words, pro-NAFTA and pro-energy from Canada.
