Changes

The population in 2009 was 509,000, only 1.6% of the national total.  Many residents migrate permanently, and in recent years there has been a large temporary migration to the oilfields of Alberta.  Since the utter collapse of the cod fisheries in the 1990s, and the failure of various government sponsored industrialization schemes, the economy has been hard-pressed.  The per capita provincial income of $CAN 30,500 (2008) is well below the national average.
