"We know what makes the difference here is we work together in a partnership. We work with government, we work with schools, and we work with NSBI. NSBI is focused on building partnerships and they are committed to working with industry and to make a difference for us. So that’s what allowed us to grow. That’s what will continue to allow us to grow and evolve, and really the key is partnerships."

They are proud to work for this company. That's the foundation for our success here. Any company that's looking to expand in North America should seriously consider Nova Scotia."
