Even with all of the negotiations going on to keep CBS in Saint John, the NDP Government in Nova Scotia has been preparing for the move since the announcement was made back in March. Health Department spokes-person Brent Mahoney tells CHSJ News, negotiations with CBS officials have been on-going but they were never given any indication CBS wasn't going to make the move since announcing it back in the spring.
Still no word on when construction will get started or a specific date when they hope to have the new facility open.
