consequent influx of all that it will bring, but
in response to this, Phibbs said, “Some-
times you’ve got to think outside the box
and think beyond yourself … you’ve got
to think towards the youth and your own
kids and your grandkids and their future —
this is something the business community
down here vehemently believes in.”
Due to the disparity between the Canadi-
an and American dollars, now would be an
ideal time for American investors to take
advantage of the fruitful business oppor-
tunities sprouting up in the Niagara region.
“There’s not a better time to be making
this investment,” Phibbs said with enthu-
siasm.
Phibbs views the completion of the speed-
way as a gateway into future investment
opportunities and greater economic devel-
opment for the entire region. It will serve
as a conduit to help support other busi-
nesses, like hotels, casinos, the Fort Erie
racetrack and the wine industry, he added.
Other projects that will enhance the area,
offering value to both community mem-
bers and visitors, are the Miller’s Creek
Marina and the implementation of GO
Trains in Niagara.
“We have to learn that if something’s com-
ing this way, we’ve got to leverage the op-
portunities collectively and be methodical
in that … work in a collaborative manner
with a unified approach to enhance and
market Niagara for all that it has to offer,”
Phibbs said.
