Saint John Hit Hard in Recent Survey

According to the Conference Board of Canada, Saint John is not doing a great job in attracting new bodies to the metro area. As cities across the country face the same problem of an aging work-force, the survey looks at which ones are doing the best job in bringing home new bodies. Calgary, Waterloo, Ottawa, Vancouver, St. John's and Richmond Hill, Ont all receive a grade of "A".


Our city has a grade of "D". The survey analyzed 50 cities based on 41 indicators including health, economy, environment, society and education.
