Economic Impact: Halifax International Airport Authority

Halifax International Airport Authority: This growth in economic impact can only increase going forward as the value of the new Alt Hotel and the newly expanded runway are considered, Joyce Carter, chief financial officer with the Halifax International Airport Authority, said in an interview, according to The Chronicle Herald. The additional $13 million in economic output in 2012 over the previous year was pretty much in line with what the authority expected and Halifax Stanfield International Airport became $13 million more valuable to Nova Scotia in 2012 for a total asset value of $1.27billion, according to an economic impact study released Monday. We also have lands available for development that will generate increased economic impact in future, Carter said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
