Each of Corridor's three plays: the New Brunswick Frederick Brook shale; Anticosti's Macasty shale (Utica stratigraphic equivalent); and the Old Harry offshore prospect in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, holds significant resource potential for Corridor's shareholders. Having been raised in the Maritimes, I have an additional personal incentive in accelerating these Eastern Canadian plays to commercial development."
