Saint John Scores Poorly on Business Ranking

Should we be worried that Saint John recently came in 78th in a ranking of the 100 best cities in Canada for entrepreneurs? Mayor Mel Norton says no. He tells CHSJ News the numbers aren't as grim as they look.

Norton says while there's definitely room for improvement the survey crunched the numbers based on the ratio of population to businesses: which means tiny touristy tours like Alma actually end up ranking better than the Port City.
