As luck would have it I visited Fredericton about a week before you posted this, as my first stop on a trip through the Canadian Maritimes. It's a pleasant town with a nice waterfront along the St. John River and a great network of paths for walking and biking running throughout the city. Aside from government, the main industry in town seemed to be brewing — there were a remarkable number of excellent microbreweries there for a town of just 60k people!
In smaller towns like Fredericton I think it might be easier to support a more general tech meetup group where topics like Perl and Linux might play a part rather than being their own separate thing.
