Cardy tells CHSJ News companies that might want to set up shop in the province but don't have the right connections are at a disadvantage.
He goes on to say there was an American company that was interested in Saint John with more than a hundred jobs but found the regulations to be inexplicable and set up shop in Finland instead where it got a jobs tax credit.
He argues the layoffs at Radian 6 after the announcement of a big payroll rebate from the province to create jobs is an example of why handouts are bad practice and from what he has heard from different companies......Even counterproductive.
