Are restaurants thriving in this economy?

The Big Story

About this episode

Enjoy this special feed drop of our sister show 'In This Economy?!'

Canadian restaurant operators could be in for another rough year – thanks to uncertainty around trade with the U-S and higher food costs – along with a few other factors.

And the industry, which has been struggling for years, is important to the country’s economy. But the numbers are not trending in the right direction.

Hope is not lost.

Host Kris McCusker takes a closer look at a report from Restaurants Canada with the President and CEO, Kelly Higginson.
