Even though New Brunswick’s population has stagnated with many people moving to other provinces in search of work, there is one town experiencing double digit growth. The population of Quispamsis grew by over 17 per cent in five years.
Mayor Murray Driscoll tells CHSJ News the influx of young families is prompting the provincial government to make plans for the building of a new elementary school in the town. He says it will ease the strain in Quispamsis, Fairvale and Lakefield schools.
Driscoll doesn’t know yet where the school will be constructed or how large it will be but is hoping it will be big enough to accomodate an increasing number of students over the next five, ten, even 15 years.
