From a NS Liberal Party release<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n HALIFAX:<\/strong> A new report from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation found that more Nova Scotians left the province in 2022 than the year prior, largely due to the lack of affordable housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The number of Nova Scotians who left the province was up by 33 per cent last year, with more than half leaving for more affordable provinces. With one of the most volatile rental markets in the country, people in Halifax have no choice but to look for cheaper places to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLosing Nova Scotians to more affordable provinces should be a thing of the past,\u201d says Housing shadow minister Braedon Clark. \u201cThe Houston government needs a stronger approach to housing to prevent more Nova Scotians from leaving the province.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”71″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”34″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n From agriculture, to construction, to healthcare \u2013 all sectors are facing an unprecedented labour shortage. Attracting new people to the province is essential to overcoming the problem, but housing remains a challenge in filling those gaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWith a labour shortage across many sectors, we can\u2019t afford to lose people to more affordable provinces,\u201d says Clark. \u201cAffordable housing needs to be a top consideration for the Houston government.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”31″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”126″]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [adrotate banner=”105″] [adrotate banner=”192″] From a NS Liberal Party release HALIFAX: A new report from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation found that more Nova Scotians left the province in 2022 than the year prior, largely due to the lack of affordable housing.
