5. Fort LaTour Project - Presentation
Mr. James Theriault of the Fort La Tour Project delivered a presentation
in French facilitated by a submitted slide presentation on the plans for development of
the Fort La Tour Site in Saint John. He presented information explaining the historical
richness, and special importance for the descendants of the Aboriginal people of North
America of this National Historic Site with 4000 years of human occupation and 10,000
artifacts from all periods from 2000 BC to 1900 AD. He enlarged on the future plans for
reconstitution of the site to include full fort reconstitution, an off-site outdoor theatre, an
archaeological experience, a geodesic dome, an interpretive plaza and a sculpture of
Mme. LaTour. Mr. Theriault anticipates that 30,000 visitors per year will visit the site with
revenues amounting to $137,000. He recognized the work of the Board of Directors of
the project, many of whom were present at the meeting, and the major stakeholders,
indicating how crucial these players are in the development of this project. He indicated
that with the help of all government levels and fund-raising projects, the reconstitution
will be a significant part of the Harbourfront Development. It was also noted that the
project fits in well with the newly launched Growth Strategy for Saint John.
