Economic Engine: Nation Building
Nation Building: Charting Nova Scotia’s Role in Canada’s Economy comes at an exciting time as the new federal government lays out its plans for Canada’s economic future. For Nova Scotia, it’s a chance to attract investments, grow our economy, create new jobs, and show how our province can compete and lead on a national stage. At the Economic Engine, you’ll hear directly about these priorities, explore where Nova Scotia fits in the bigger picture, and leave with practical ideas on how to better position your business to stay ahead of the curve in Nova Scotia’s changing economy.
