Today marks the 20th Anniversary of the day the Cunard Princess cruise ship came to Saint John effectively starting the new industry in the Port City. On September 10th 1989, the ship came into the port of Saint John after being diverted here by Hurricane Gabrielle. Betty McMillan of the Port Authority tells CHSJ news the city literally rolled out the red carpet.
McMillan says they gave all the displaced passengers roses when they arrived in Saint John, a tradition that continues today.
