              Monday, February 22, 2021
              The Halifax Chamber of Commerce has officially asked the city council to freeze commercial property tax for the 2021-22 budget.

              Wednesday, January 27, 2021
              One of the major problems the next premier must tackle is housing affordability. Across the province, house prices are climbing at record-breaking rates.

              As flight service collapses in Atlantic Canada under strain of COVID-19, some worry the region’s being cut off from the rest of the country
              Wednesday, January 20, 2021
              Sheri Somerville, CEO of the Atlantic Chamber of Commerce, cites some sobering figures: a $3-billion loss to the tourism industry in Atlantic Canada in 2020, part of a $12-billion overall loss in the region’s six core industries. Recovering from those kinds of economic losses will take time, said Somerville, and the lack of efficient air transport service will extend that time. “One thing that we know for sure is reducing air service, or suspending air service, creates uncertainty,” she said.

              Last week, Air Canada officially stopped offering its five-day-a-week route between Sydney and Toronto, leaving the J.A Douglas McCurdy Sydney Airport without a single commercial flight.
