Most people still live paycheque to paycheque

The eighth annual Research Survey of Employed Canadians has been released by the Canadian Payroll Association.

It says only 23% of Atlantic Canadians expect their local economy to improve in the coming year, compared to 36% nationally.  59% of people in this region live paycheque to paycheque, and a third would find it tough to come up with $2000 for an emergency…highest rate in Canada.
