Nanaimo Economic Development Should Consider

Hiring Canada's Very Own Celine Dion!!

The Quebec singer of much renown is currently opening her new show in Las Vegas and is being called a "one woman economic stimulus package'.

A report in the Montreal Gazette quotes Las Vegas sources as saying that during her previous three year engagement at Caesar's Palace every last ticket of every show sold out, accumulating gross profits of $400,000,000.00, reaching an audience of 3,000,000 people and creating 7,000 indirect jobs during that time.

Her show alone is expected to generate around $114,000,000.00 worth of new economic activity in each of the three years of her new contract. Her first months show alone has racked up over $10,000,000.00 in ticket sales.

Exactly What Nanaimo Needs!

Forget all this complicated economic development strategy, just build a $95,000,000.00, 4,000 seat auditorium (or convert our very own $100,000,000.00 building) and appeal to Celine's sense of national pride and coax her away from sin city. Nanaimo's future would be assured!!
