I think this will continue to be the case!
I also remember reading somewhere that Halifax has the second youngest population of any major Canadian city in Canada (behind only Calgary). Not sure what the case is in St. John's but that is also a good sign!

Just look at the increase St. John's has had in the 4 years on that chart .. 16%! in just 4 years, and two more years have past.. I'm telling you lots to come!
So bring on the retail! hahaha
I remember when the age stats came out, I'm not sure where St. John's stands but I know it's below the national average, I just can't remember the numbers.
