The betting man's money is riding on a letter of intent to be signed between the Province and French nuclear giant Areva today. Both sides have called a news conference for later this morning at the Delta but nothing confirmed from either party. Premier Shawn Graham says the announcment will help build jobs in the community.
Energy Minister Jack Keir spent time in Florida last week meeting with Areva and discussing the possibility of a second reactor at Point Lepreau or an energy park. Also taking part in the announcement is President and Chief Executive Officer of NB Power Gaetan Thomas. The news conference gets started at 11am.
