Fundy Royal MP Rob Moore got on board with the project in 2007.
He tells CHSJ News the Q-Plex is the town's crown jewel and a great facility for both the young and the old to enjoy.
Moore says he knew once the ball got rolling on the project that it would pull through. He says the environmentally friendly aspects of the facility made it easier to secure funding.
Saint John MP Rodney Weston also on hand for the grand opening. Weston worked on the project because of its proximity to his own riding.
He says the facility may be in Quispamsis, but it will benefit the entire southern region of the province.
