Why Are Some Employers In Province Not Able To Find Workers?

If you want to work in New Brunswick, you might have to be a little less selective when it comes to accepting a job. 

So says Provincial Finance Minister Blaine Higgs who points out despite an unemployment rate of 10.4 per cent, some employers are having a tough time finding workers and Ganongs, for instance, had to bring people in from outside the country.

Higgs does concede the provincial government has to do a better job of connecting the dots.

Higgs also says for those people who want to start up their own small business, the province is there to help them out.
