Project Outcomes

www.stjohnriver.org

  • Everyone was amazed by the story, pride that these were

fellow Canadians

  • Price of Place- Felt connected and part of the story as it was

brought to their community where the history happened

  • Strength of the story went outside of NB turned into a real

connection opportunity for Canadians in three provinces

  • Project legacy: signage, re-enactment groups (Hamilton,

Ontario and the Fton Guard using the uniforms) and the pedway contribute to ongoing awareness, understanding, appreciation and a sense of connection to our place and to each other
