UPDATE: Sorry we've been a bit quiet on facebook lately but it's because we've been so darned busy preparing our new application to FCNB to do a raise of $500,000 - $1 million under the CEDC tax credit program. This program provides a 50% tax provincial income tax credit to New Brunswickers who invest their money in a CEDC like ours. Investors are guaranteed that 100% of their money remains in the local economy to help build our small business sector. Stay tuned for updates on our progress for the upcoming tax season!
