Default Anyone Truck Driving in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick???

Hi,

I am keen to hear if anyone on this forum is Truck Driving in NS or NB??

As a family we are looking to move to Nova Scotia, however if the trucking industry is poor in these provinces then we will have to re-think and try others.

So basically, if anyone has or is trucking in these provinces, please share your views, as from what we have read so far, we could be making a mistake by choosing NS or NB ??

Has anyone tried and failed in NS,NB, or doing it now, and very happy??

All views and opinions, good and bad would be very much appreciated at this point
