WelcomeYear End Report
As the year 2011 winds down, I want to take time to reflect on the economic challenges facing our province, and the daily challenges facing Nova Scotians. Let me begin by looking at unemployment in this province. Many hard working Nova Scotians, including folks here in Colchester County, are finding they no longer have a job. Many continue to look for work. Others have moved away to other provinces. This is of particular concern in rural Nova Scotia, where, according to Stats Canada, rural Nova Scotia has lost 6,500 jobs in 2011. That means 6,500 more Nova Scotians are finding it harder to make ends meet. Liberal Leader Stephen McNeil and members of the Nova Scotia Liberal Caucus have continued to ask the Premier about job creation. The NDP claim to have a strategy, but if they do, it is not working. |
