An exploration of skills and labour shortages in Atlantic Canada : executive summary.: AC5-50/2-2019E-PDF

"Atlantic Canada’s labour force is shrinking. Between 2012 and 2018, the region saw a decline of 2.4% (31,000 people), while the rest of Canada enjoyed steady increases. Over the next 10 years, another 229,000 Atlantic Canadians are expected to retire from the labour force. This is resulting in a critical shortage of labour and skills for Atlantic Canadian firms, which prevents them from both growing their businesses and meeting the demands of their clients"--Executive summary, page 2.
