History
editCamp Utopia
editUtopia was home to Camp Utopia, the Canadian Army A-30 Canadian Infantry Training Centre from 1943 to 1958.[2] Units lodged here:
- The Carleton and York Regiment and The North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment - 1943 to 1954.[3]
- 8th Canadian Hussars (Princess Louise's) - 1954-1955
The base was replaced by a new and large base located in Gagetown in 1958. The structures at the base were demolished and left vacant since.
