ON Regional Economic Development

Results from 3,100 surveys in 73 BR+E projects undertaken from across Ontario between 2009 – 2014 have been analyzed. Some of the interesting results include:

• 38% of businesses surveyed stated they plan to expand
• 71% of businesses considered the local business climate either good or excellent
• 40% of business stated that they had difficulties hiring new employees

Provincial BR+E survey results are available to support communities undertaking BR+E projects. This data helps with community analysis and provides context which can be used to benchmark local results.
