Premier Shawn Graham is promising to help upgrade the city's water system if elected in September.

He says the aging infrastructure needs to be replaced and vows to cover one third of the costs.

When asked if his continual spending announcements will hinder his ability to bring down the provincial deficit by 2014, Graham says you cannot grow an economy without having access to clean drinking water.

Graham says Saint John is a key engine in the economy, and when it does well, New Brunswick does well.
