Cariboo’s goods sector thrived in 2016

PRINCE GEORGE, BC–(Marketwired – May 31, 2017) – The Cariboo Development Region’s economy was driven by forestry and mining in 2016. According to the CPABC Regional Check-Up, an annual economic report by the Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia, production at sawmills increased and mines continued to operate, leading to a vibrant year of activity in the Cariboo’s goods sector. However, this was not enough to offset job losses in the service sector.
