More signs that 2016 will be a difficult one for businesses across the province and here in Sudbury.

The Greater Sudbury Chamber of Commerce and the Ontario Chamber have released the Emerging Stronger report that shows only 30% of businesses believe the Ontario economy is going in the right direction.

Chair of the Sudbury Chamber Karen Hortovenko say  the government does have the responsibility to step up and do what’s necessary to fuel job creation, bey locally we have to be proactive.

The report also show only 48% of businesses plan to expand in the next five years…that’s down 14 points from 2013.
