COVID-19 Recovery Dashboard - April 29, 2021
This month’s COVID-19 Recovery Dashboard shows record home sales across the province along with a jump in housing starts and a continued rise in new listings. Employment in some sectors, especially high-wage sectors is showing strong growth, but restrictions due to the third wave and hesitancy from the public is still keeping employment in the accommodation and food service sector depressed. Retail sales were flat in February, though from a high level in January and are up double digits compared to the same time last year.
