FORCE is a research centre that looks at tidal stream technology to understand and implement the technology for Canada’s clean energy. The extreme tides from the Bay of Fundy are a perfect location for harnessing waterpower. The exhibits explain the research efforts, technology, and environmental impacts—a great place to visit for adults and older kids.
