Premier’s talk at Halifax Chamber of Commerce lunch attracts large crowd

Nova Scotia Premier Stephen McNeil vouched for an immigration increase and urged people to follow the Ivany report recommendations to slow the province’s economic slide Tuesday.

“It is absolutely a falsehood that when we open this province to more people that we rob our own sons and daughters of opportunities,” he said at the Halifax Chamber of Commerce lunch.

“As a matter of fact, we create opportunities by making sure we open up our province.”
