Brian Gallant: Deaths outnumber births in New Brunswick, and McKenna says unless that reversed, the aging population won’t be able to afford services like health care, according to Toronto Star. New Brunswick Premier Brian Gallant says he has already spoken to the new federal government about the aging demographic and will push the issue again when the federal cabinet meets in the province next week. Frank McKenna says unless the region can build a larger base of new citizens, immigrants will continue to flock to larger centres like Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver. Prince Edward Island Premier Wade Mac Lauchlan says boosting immigration is mission critical. Nova Scotia Premier Stephen McNeil says the provinces have a responsibility to create a social fabric so that immigrants who come to the region will want to stay.
