jeremy.moore@century21.ca — Mon, 10 Jun 2013 00:00:00 GMT

Peterborough's annual Dragon Boat Festival was quickly embraced by the community when it started in 2001 and has grown rapidly from about 34 community teams to more than 100 each year. The event is a successful fundraiser to raise awareness and support cancer care and the Breast Assessment Centre at the PRHC.

I was honored to be part of a team on this past weekend and we had a great time!

CANADA'S ECONOMY HAD ITS BEST MONTH FOR JOB CREATION IN MORE THAN A DECADE LAST MONTH!

ted.wiggins@century21.ca — Sat, 08 Jun 2013 00:00:00 GMT

Canada's economy had its best month for job creation in more than a decade last month, adding 95,000 new jobs, according to Statistics Canada.

A consensus of economists had been expecting Canada to create only about 15,000 jobs during the month.

The gain reported Friday was more than three times as much as the most optimistic expectation among closely watched economists.
