CBC Maritimes is proud to be a sponsor of the Best Places to Work in Atlantic Canada luncheon. This program was designed to recognize the best employers in the region – those who make it a priority to create better workplaces for their employees. Progress magazine and partner Best Companies Group are breaking new ground in Atlantic Canada with this program. CBC News Nova Scotia host Tom Murphy is the emcee for the event, along with his co-host Amy Smith, who will be on hand to present some of the awards.
