Chiasson stated that the market for goods from Pictou Landing was increasing, and that many from the reserve were getting 'small' jobs in neighbouring towns which kept relief assistance low.
Note
The market for Indian Wares is bout the same as for the last quarter, although better than at this time last year. It seems easier for the Indians to pick up odd jobs here and there in the neighbouring towns and this means much to them along with the little assistance they receive from the department.
