Upper Big Tracadie was first settled by Black Loyalists in 1787. UBT, as it is known locally, was once a vibrant, thriving place with at least 200 residents. These days, only a handful of houses are occupied, with many sitting empty and abandoned. Not one child lives in the aging community. As Portia Clark discovered, there is work being done to revitalize it for future generations.
