Both provincial Supply and Services Minister Ed Doherty and Saint John M-P Rodney Weston are on board with the Port Authority's request for funding to expand cruise ship berths.
Doherty tells CHSJ News the request has the support of the Saint John Liberal caucus but it still has to go through the various levels of approval in Fredericton.
