Saint John Board Of Trade Happy With "Business Friendly" Placement

The Saint John Board of Trade is pleased with the city's ranking of 50 on a recent study about the 100 most business friendly cities in Canada.

BOT President Imelda Gilman tells CHSJ News while it's great that we made the list, there is still work to be done before we can shoot up the ranks, such as having a competitive tax environment, less red tape, and a solid regulatory framework.

She says another key factor in developing a business-friendly environment is to the ability to attract a skilled workforce.
