FEATURING GUEST SPEAKER LAURIE GUTHRIE,
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SPECIALIST
"Building a Successful Business Ambassador Program"
Fredericton, like many communities, lacked the resources to engage in
the expensive game of investment attraction. The quandary was how
could a small city with one economic development officer and a modest
budget address this challenge? As the Knowledge-based Capital of
New Brunswick, Fredericton also had an advantage: being home to a
large number of local companies doing global business. In 2002, Laurie
Guthrie saw an opportunity to leverage and engage these corporate citizens to promote Fredericton
while abroad for meetings and travels, and so the idea of the Fredericton Business Ambassador
Program was born.
Attend to learn how the program was pioneered, and how a team of 720 people were inspired to
promote their city on the global stage!

is learning to care for her mother
CONTINUED FROM > PAGE 1
Connecting with a topic or
passion that her mother had
before the illness is some-
thing Elphick does on a reg-
ular basis. Whether it's talk-
ing about the cardinals she
saw in the yard or about dif-
ferent flowers, Elphick never
pushes her mother or gets
frustrated if she doesn't
remember or can't
understand.
It's called "patient -centred
care", essentially meeting
someone where they're at,
Riehl explained.
A lot has changed for
Elphick, David and Frances
over the last few years but
there's still a lot that has
stayed the same. Humour
was always a big part of their
life that has stayed with
them.
Frances still likes to take
care of baby dolls and loves a
stuffed cat in the nursing
home, a caregiver role that
she's never really lost.
"It's her making some kind
of communication. I smile. I
sit back and I watch it,"
Elphick said. "She's still my
mom."

Donna Elphick and her mother, Frances, are still close. Elphick's intuition has helped her through the
process.
