The Government of Canada and the four Atlantic provincial governments announced the launch of an Atlantic Growth Strategy at a meeting today, July 4, in St. Peters Bay, Prince Edward Island.

The strategy will direct targeted actions to stimulate the region’s economy, support both innovative and resource-based industries, and increase job opportunities for Atlantic Canadians.
