I'm not saying there aren't rich people in Moncton/NB, just that Halifax/NS have them too, and all else being equal you'd expect more billionaires in Halifax as it's a larger city. So without further explanation it's not a good example of why the CFL is more likely to set up shop in Moncton.
Some local examples are Kenneth Rowe (IMP) and John Risley (Clearwater) and you can see some large local mansions of some of these people.
I'm also skeptical of the narrative that Moncton is a football-crazed Regina-like city and meaningfully more enthusiastic than Halifax.
