BOT Not Worried About Recent Layoffs

The Saint John Board of Trade does not despair poor job numbers here and in the province and the news of Irving Oil layoffs.
 
President Imelda Gilman tells CHSJ News it's always disappointing to hear that companies have to lay off workers.

She says there are different reasons for these layoffs and it goes to show that we are not isolated here and we are competing globally.

Gilman says growth in the City's IT and Health sector are reasons to be hopeful.
