New Brunswick’s economy spurred by 2003
ST. JOHN, N.B. — New Brunswick is in for economic upward movement later this year, according to a provincial scorecard by the RBC Financial Group.
The report, issued Aug. 29, forecasted that real GDP growth for the province should increase as exports to the U.S. and construction activity picks up.
The RBC report ranks provinces according to seven different economic indicators available on a monthly basis, including international exports.
New Brunswick charted the second- highest growth rate in international trade, according to the report, and third-highest in manufacturing shipments.
