Default Project Management in Nova Scotia

Hello to you all. Myself and my family are moving to Canada, probably to the Halifax area, this year. We have our PR and I was wondering if there are any Project Managers that could tell me what the PM field is like over there at the moment. Is there much work out there? Are the salaries decent? I have actually done quite a bit of research, but it is always better to get a feel for things from the people on the ground.
I am at present a PM for a company in the nuclear manufacturing area, but my background is aviation engineering and I also spent a couple of years doing domestic electrics and renewable energy, so a broad spectrum!
Any information would be most appreciated, not just from the Halifax area. Thanks in advance

Have you looked at IMP Aerospace ? You may find something of interest there. Good luck.

If you make two more posts, you'll be able to PM.
