February Holiday Ruled Out

Don't look for a February holiday happening in our province anytime soon.

Family Day is a holiday in four other provinces including Alberta and Ontario but the Premier says another holiday wouldn't be good for small businesses many of which are on shaky ground and facing economic challenges such as an increase in the minimum wage which is due to take effect in September.
 
The Premier goes on to say the state of the economy is just too fragile right now and we already have a number of holidays throughout the year.
