<li delay=10>The agriculture sector in Haldimand and Norfolk is undergoing significant change. While ranking #1 and #3 in number of businesses, the number of business fell by 311. Despite the decline, overall employment grew, suggesting that small family farms are being merged into large farming businesses.<br><br><br><br></li>\
\
<li delay=10>Manufacturing is undergoing a transition. Significant job losses in Machinery, Primary Metal Manufacturing, Clothing Manufacturing (-1291) between Dec. 2003 and Dec. 2007 have been offset by growth in Transportation, Food, Chemical, and Plastics and Rubber Manufacturing. In total a net gain of 984 new manufacturing jobs occurred between 2003 and 2007. Manufacturing is becoming highly specialized, but will require workers to be flexible and cross-skilled to meet emerging demands.<br><br><br><br></li>\
\
<li delay=10>Between 2001 and 2006 significant losses occurred in manufacturing (-1725 jobs in Brant CD) and in agriculture (-1275 jobs in Haldimand-Norfolk). In contrast significant job growth occurred in the health sector (+1125 Brant Census, +1395 Haldimand-Norfolk) and in Administrative and Support, Waste Management and remediation (+1055 Brant Census).<br><br><br><br></li>\
\
<li delay=10>Occupations in the Skilled Trades play a significant role in the key industry sectors employing people within Grand Erie (Manufacturing: 25,240; Construction: 7,925). The 2006 Educational Attainment Levels released in the 2006 Statistics Canada data indicate a competitive edge of more than 4,000 Apprentices or Skill Trades Certificates than Ontario as a whole.<br><br><br><br></li>\
\
<li delay=10>An aging population both the Brant Census Division and Haldimand-Norfolk Census Division have significantly fewer workers in the core working age (20-49) than Ontario. More than 6,000 people would be needed to match Ontario’s percentage share. In contrast, the region has a larger portion of persons aged 55+ than Ontario. These numbers suggest that there will be a shortfall of skilled trades persons to replace workers exiting the labour force.<br><br><br><br></li>\
\
<li delay=10>86-88% of all businesses in Grand Erie fall into the small business category, providing jobs for over 17,800 people. Small business is critical to the survival of other businesses, providing a range of services from repair and maintenance, construction, and professional services.<br><br><br><br></li>\
