About this episode
Atlantic cities in Canada, including Moncton, Fredericton, Saint John, Halifax, Charlottetown, and St. Johns, experienced population growth faster than the national average in 2024, despite a slowdown in international immigration. Moncton led the pack with a 3% increase, while Saint John had the smallest growth at 1.1%. Immigration played a significant role in driving this regional growth, filling jobs and boosting local economies. However, with the federal government reducing admissions in 2025, growth rates have eased. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
