N.B. announces details for this summer’s travel incentive program to help tourism sector during pandemic
Leigha Kaiser CTVNewsAtlantic.ca Digital Coordinator
HALIFAX -- The Government of New Brunswick released details Thursday on how the province's Explore NB Travel Incentive Program will work this summer.
In April, the province announced the program would be reoffered again in hopes to encourage New Brunswickers to travel and discover their own province. The program was first offered in the summer of 2020 as a way for the province to support their tourism sector.
"We are happy to be able to offer this program once again to residents," said Tammy Scott-Wallace, New Brunswick's tourism, heritage, and culture minister. "It has helped support many tourism businesses across the province and has helped New Brunswickers to discover new places and hidden gems. It has truly made it possible for many people to continue to explore their province over the past year."
The program will run from May 27 to Oct. 31, offering a 20 per cent rebate on eligible expenses up to $1,000 for New Brunswickers taking a vacation that includes a paid overnight stay in the province.
The four categories of eligible expenses include:
- Accommodations such as at hotels, motels, inns, B&Bs and campsites.
- Food and drink at restaurants and food trucks.
- Activities such as entrance fees to attractions, museums, art galleries, cultural events and outdoor adventure activities.
- Travel expenses such as for vehicle rentals, ferries and parking.
"Applicants may apply for the rebate if they have valid and detailed receipts from registered New Brunswick businesses and have a paid overnight stay at a New Brunswick accommodation," wrote the province in a news release on Thursday.
Applications can be submitted from July 5 to Nov. 30.

100+ ways New Brunswick businesses are reshaping the tourism landscape
From: Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency
News release
Government of Canada invests more than $6.7 million in 53 tourism projects to enhance offerings for visitors
May 26, 2023 · Fredericton, New Brunswick · Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA)
Over the past two years, New Brunswick’s tourism operators have doubled down to build experiences, accommodations, and strategies to strengthen Atlantic Canada as a destination of choice – spearheading more than 100 projects through the Government of Canada’s Tourism Relief Fund . That work continues, and ACOA is here to help businesses as they attract more visitors to the region and grow the industry with fresh approaches to delivering world-class tourism.
Today, the Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Official Languages and Minister responsible for ACOA, announced over $6.7 million in Tourism Relief Fund (TRF) support to 53 projects with businesses and organizations across New Brunswick. This is in addition to $6.4 million in previously announced TRF contributions to 53 New Brunswick businesses since the program launched.
Minister Petitpas Taylor showcased six of the new projects from across the province that demonstrate the TRF’s focus on building, upgrading and diversifying innovative tourism products:
· $500,000 to Metepenagiag Heritage Park Inc. in Red Bank, a modern Indigenous interpretive site, to help enhance products and services.
· $500,000 to Camping Plage Aboiteau Beach Inc. in Cap Pelé, to establish a glamping resort and attract visitors to one of Canada’s top beaches.
· $350,000 to the New Brunswick Potato Museum Inc. in Florenceville-Bristol, the French Fry Capital of the World, to revitalize infrastructure and programming to enhance the tourism experience.
· $166,106 to the Grand Falls Cycling Committee Inc. to improve bike trails throughout the Town of Grand Falls.
· $99,999 to Salty Towers Inn Ltd. in Saint Andrews to renovate and increase the comfort of visitors to extend their stays in one of New Brunswick’s anchor destination locations.
· $75,000 to Second Nature Outdoors Inc. in Fredericton to purchase new recreational equipment to expand and diversify their small craft water experiences.
Launched in July 2021, the TRF has helped organizations and businesses in the tourism sector upgrade their offering of innovative products and services, enticing new visitors, and reinvigorating the economy. Canada’s regional development agencies have been delivering the $485 million in TRF support.
“We have so much to be proud of in our beautiful region, and so much to share with visitors. As we launch the tourism season, we are reaffirming the sector’s vital importance to our economy, and are committed to helping tourism businesses and organizations in New Brunswick develop the world-class experiences that make Atlantic Canada such a sought-after destination.” - The Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Official Languages and Minister responsible for ACOA
“It’s time for Canada’s tourism sector to push past reviving all the way to thriving. Our government’s investments in tourism over the last three years focused on sustaining and rebuilding the tourism ecosystem, promoting what we have and designing for the future. A fully recovered and robust tourism sector is key to our government’s ongoing work to build an economy that works for everyone. Together, we can make sure that Canada’s tourism sector is something that visitors and Canadians alike will celebrate and enjoy for generations to come.” - The Honourable Randy Boissonnault, Minister of Tourism and Associate Minister of Finance
“Our glamping project would not have happened without support through the Tourism Relief Fund. It was essential in securing the rest of the funding needed to complete our project, which will benefit the whole community through economic spinoffs.” - Frank Richard, President, Camping Plage Aboiteau Beach Inc.
“The funding for the New Brunswick Potato Museum from ACOA’s Tourism Relief Fund is a huge help for our project to update many parts of the museum along with the outside facility and storage areas. With the expansion and improvements, the facility will now offer longer hours and 7 days per week for visitors. As a major attraction in the river valley, we are excited that this will bring even more tourists to our area and community.” - Tammy Kirkland, Manager, New Brunswick Potato Museum Inc.
“The Tourism Relief fund has been an invaluable support to our company during a very uncertain time. It has allowed us to continue to invest and seek out new opportunities for our business when we may otherwise have not.” - Andrew Cuthbertson, Owner, Second Nature Outdoors Inc.
“I cannot thank ACOA enough for their generous support of our project. Their assistance enabled us to bring our vision to life, and the upgrades to the building have been a huge success. Everyone involved in this project has been incredibly grateful for their support. ” - Patricia Dunnett, General Manager, Metepenagiag Heritage Park
"We would like to thank ACOA for providing us the opportunity to upgrade our historic inn. It is helping us to deliver an enhanced customer experience and establish Salty Towers as a recommended accommodation in Saint Andrews." - Carmel Rioux, Treasurer, Salty Towers Inn
“We just completed a portion of the TransCanada Trail within the original boundaries of the Town of Grand Falls last fall. It was completed as a ‘green’ trail for bicycling, walking, skateboarding, etc with funding from ACOA, RDC, Infrastructure Canada and the Town of Grand Falls. Without the multilevel funding given to our organization this project would never have seen the light of day.” - Earl Toner, President, Grand Falls Cycling/Veloroute de Grand-Sault
Quick facts
The Tourism Relief Fund was a $500-million national program to support the tourism sector in Canada, including $485 million for regional priorities administered by Canada’s regional development agencies and $15 million for national priorities administered by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada.
A minimum of $50 million of the fund’s budget was earmarked for Indigenous tourism projects. Indigenous communities that rely heavily on tourism were disproportionately affected by the pandemic.
$48.5 million from the Tourism Relief Fund was allocated to the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency to administer in the Atlantic region.
Launched in July 2021, the Tourism Relief Fund ended on March 31, 2023.

Concert Time Collective: Building a Classical Music Community in Miramichi
Written by Labib Palis and Natalia Bohorquez
Concert Time Collective started in 2021 with three newcomer classical musicians from different places who met in Miramichi and wanted to play music. Natalia Bohorquez (Colombia), Michael diBarry (USA), and Labib Palis (Colombia) started the Concert Time Collective initiative.
During our first summer, we collaborated with the Chatham Public Library in Miramichi to launch our inaugural chamber music series that took place at Elm Park, outside the library, over a month, with a concert happening every weekend. In the summer of 2022, we continued the series with a single performance. Michael returned to his home country, while Natalia and Labib remained in Canada, determined to keep the project alive.

Art creates vibrant communities; our mission is to make music happen, regardless of the circumstances or the place. While smaller rural communities may lack concert halls and diverse venues designed for chamber music concerts, a music venue can be anything – a park, a café, a theatre – and it is our goal to contribute to Miramichi’s diverse culture by transforming everyday places into concert venues, creating concert opportunities for our new hometown and advancing our music careers without having to relocate to bigger urban centers.
In 2023, the project began to evolve: we wanted to foster our community’s growing appreciation for chamber music by bringing in classical musicians and ensembles from all over New Brunswick. We started to feel the need for Concert Time to be more than a summer project. We envisioned a year-round programming to become part of Miramichi’s music culture. We started to play music together more regularly and organized concerts at home or in local cafes and eventually we realized we wanted to make a bigger impact. This led us to apply for our first artsnb grant.

Funding from artsnb was crucial in the development of Concert Time Collective . artsnb funding has been crucial to the development of Concert Time Collective . Thanks to a Professional Development grant from the Career Development program, we were able to have the concerts documented so that we could promote them. In addition, part of this grant was used to design a logo for our project, Concert Time Collective. Designed by Pantera Studio, our logo makes reference to our string instruments, the Miramichi River, and the beautiful natural spaces of Miramichi. Colourful and charming, our logo is designed to present classical music in an engaging and carefree way.
In our quest to present music creatively, we partnered again with the Chatham Public Library in 2024 to apply for an Artist in Residency grant to develop a project called “Music and Storytelling.” In this project, we combined music, literature, and theatre in an interactive concert series. We developed four interactive concerts, each featuring a different string instrument. Each concert had its unique charm: the first explored literature and story writing through music, the second enhanced stories with instrumental sounds, the third provided soundtracks for different tales, and the last involved readings and creating a script for a musical comedy. This project, running from May 11th to June 1 st , 2024, left us with a script for a musical comedy which we plan to bring to life again.

Miramichi is a growing city. Over the past years, we have seen more and more immigrants arriving, looking for new activities and events, hoping to make this place feel like home. Many express a sentiment of nostalgia for the variety of events in bigger cities. Through our music, we hope to contribute to the fulfillment of this need, to diversify the cultural offerings in the city, to create musical experiences where new connections are made, and to help others feel that Miramichi can be their home too.

Art in New Brunswick holds great potential. With newcomers bringing diverse ideas, cultures, and expressions, and merging them with the already rich local art and culture, the province’s artistic landscape is becoming increasingly vibrant and exciting, and Concert Time Collective wants to be at the heart of it.

Atlantic Canada Business Grants
Grants Available to New Brunswick Businesses (2023): Top Grants + Tips for Applying
Looking for New Brunswick business grants ?
Whether you're an aspiring New Brunswick entrepreneur looking for startup funds , or a current business owner looking for money to grow your business, you're in the right place!
On this page we've assembled the best grants for entrepreneurs in New Brunswick. We also explain the basics of business grants and give you tips on how to maximize your grant funding.
Let's get started!
What is a Business Grant in New Brunswick?
A business grant is a specific amount of money given to a business by a government agency, private organization, or non-profit organization for a particular reason. Grants are usually given to businesses that meet specific requirements, such as being located in a particular region, operating in a specific industry, or focusing on a particular area, such as sustainability or innovation. The eligibility criteria for grants can differ greatly, so it's vital to carefully examine the requirements before submitting an application.
What's the Difference Between Grants and Loans?
Grants and loans are two different types of funding options. The most significant difference between the two is that grants do not require repayment , while loans do. Grants are typically awarded through a competitive process and are intended to support specific initiatives, industries, audiences, or geographic locations. On the other hand, loans are usually provided by banks or other financial institutions , and borrowers are required to pay back the loan amount along with interest . The loan terms depend on the lender, and the interest rate can vary depending on the borrower's creditworthiness and other factors. While some government loan programs exist, most loans are provided by private financial institutions.
Types of Business Grants in New Brunswick
Grant organizations, including government ministries, aim to promote job creation and economic growth . In order to achieve this goal, they often provide grants to businesses that support specific:
- A ctivities
- I ndustries
To make it easier to remember these categories, we've turned them in an acronym: the "AAIR Framework".
Here's a breakdown of each:
Business Grants for Audiences
Governments recognize that there are certain groups of people who are not well represented in small business, including Indigenous, women, and black entrepreneurs. To address this, they have established financial incentive programs and grants to support these groups.
Another group that receives considerable support is startups in New Brunswick .
Business Grants for Activities
A number of activities underpin the success of most businesses, and there are grant programs to support them. Key activities include:
- Hiring and training
- Purchase of equipment
- Business expansion (for example, exporting)
Business Grants for Industries
Governments often target specific industries for support, then provide grants and other types of funding for hiring, training, export development and more.
Some of the top industries in New Brunswick that receive support include:
- Advanced Manufacturing
- Information & Communications Technology (ICT)
Business Grants for Regions
Finally, funding organizations might target specific geographic regions for support, in order to increase employment and economic growth.
Who Is Eligible for New Brunswick Business Grants?
That's a very common question!
While grants are available for entrepreneurs and business of many different backgrounds and industries, there are a few eligibility criteria that are most common:
- 1 Incorporation . While grants do exist for sole proprietorships and partnerships, there are many more funding programs that require a business be incorporated.
- 2 In business for two (or more) years . As mentioned previously, there are many programs for new businesses (i.e. startups) in New Brunswick - but many of those programs offer "in-kind" support (e.g. mentorship) rather than cash. You're more likely to qualify for money programs if you've been in business for a minimum of 2 years.
- 3 Established revenue . Many grant programs want to see a track record before they will give you non-repayable funds.

Grants for Individuals
Grants for individuals offer numerous benefits, especially in areas such as education, research, health, and personal development. Here are some key advantages:
1. Financial Support Without Repayment
- Unlike loans, grants do not need to be repaid. This provides individuals with financial relief without the burden of debt, allowing them to focus on achieving their goals.
2. Access to Education and Training
- Grants often cover tuition, fees, books, and other educational expenses. They enable individuals to pursue higher education or vocational training, which can lead to better job prospects and higher earning potential.
3. Support for Research and Innovation
- Grants fund innovative projects and research, allowing individuals to explore new ideas and contribute to their fields. This can lead to personal and professional growth as well as advancements in various industries.
4. Health and Medical Assistance
- Grants can cover medical expenses, such as treatments, medications, and surgeries. This ensures that financial constraints do not prevent access to necessary healthcare, improving the overall well-being of individuals and their families.
5. Entrepreneurial and Small Business Support
- Grants provide seed money or additional funding to start or expand a business. This helps individuals become self-sufficient, create jobs, and contribute to economic growth.
6. Empowerment and Independence
- By providing the necessary resources and financial support, grants empower individuals to achieve their goals, whether that involves education, entrepreneurship, artistic pursuits, or community service. This leads to increased self-confidence and independence.
7. Community and Social Impact
- Grants that support community service projects or social initiatives allow individuals to make a positive impact on their communities. This can lead to stronger social networks and improved quality of life for the broader community.
8. Specialized Support
- Many grants are targeted towards specific populations, such as veterans, people with disabilities, or individuals from low-income backgrounds. These grants address the unique needs of these groups, providing tailored support that might not be available through other means.
9. Professional Development and Networking
- Receiving a grant can open doors to new opportunities, including networking with other grant recipients, professionals, and organizations. This can lead to collaborations, mentorship, and further career development.
10. Recognition and Credibility
- Being awarded a grant can enhance an individual’s credibility and reputation in their field. It can serve as a mark of achievement, recognizing the individual’s potential, project, or initiative as valuable and worthy of investment.
In summary, grants for individuals are powerful tools that can significantly enhance personal and professional development, reduce financial burdens, and enable individuals to contribute meaningfully to society.

New Brunswick Museum expansion now underway
Saint john mayor donna reardon says its the city's largest construction project.
Social Sharing
Provincial and municipal leaders planted shovels in the dirt during a groundbreaking ceremony in front of the New Brunswick museum to declare the beginning of its construction phase. Saint John Mayor Donna Reardon, speaking at the announcement, said the moment marks a historic chapter in the city and the province. "The economics of this project cannot be understated," she said. Valued at $130 million, Reardon said it will be the largest construction project in the city. "By bringing together government support at all levels, we have ensured that this museum will not only be a cultural hub, but also a driver of economic growth for our city and the province," she said. Reardon, along with Premier Blaine Higgs, MP Wayne Long and representatives of the museum and the EllisDon construction group, made the announcement Monday morning.
Construction set to begin on N.B. Museum after groundbreaking ceremony
The New Brunswick Museum revitalization project will partially rebuild and expand the historic building in Saint John. It will also upgrade the city's parking and pedestrian infrastructure, with a new snow-ban lot for winters and upgraded sidewalks in the area. Other upgrades will include turning the Douglas Avenue and Bentley Street crosswalks into "lighted crosswalks" and an extension of Harbour Passage, a trail that connects the west side and north end with the uptown.
- N.B. Museum will be transformational, says Saint John mayor
- New Brunswick Museum design unveiled, $108M in funding secured
Speaking with media following the announcement, Higgs said potential changes to the provincial government in the upcoming provincial election won't cause any changes to the funding already committed to the project. "The federal portion is fully committed and the [museum board] is seeking private investments now. So it is sealed, signed and delivered," Higgs said.
Construction to begin soon but no set date
The EllisDon company will oversee construction. Shaun Stiles, the group's senior vice-president and area manager for the Atlantic region, said construction is expected to begin soon. "They don't have an exact date, but the tender package is out now for demolition," he said.
Work on the museum is expected to take roughly two and half years, according to the province's media release. Stiles said residents should expect some standard noise disruptions. "It's a big project … we're in a few years of construction, so there will be noise, there will be dirt and debris," he said. "But we're used to doing stuff like this in residential areas. So we'll do our best to keep it down to a minimum."
- Saint John house needs to lose heritage status to make way for larger museum, city says
Stiles says construction times will likely be between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. and that he does not foresee significant traffic disruptions.
Last year, the owners of five privately owned properties near the museum site were sent buying offers by the provincial Department of Transportation and Infrastructure. The houses will be demolished to make way for the museum's parking infrastructure.
Stiles said all houses in the museum's construction path have been vacated.
