"We're happy with the pace of growth we're seeing right now, and if you look at the report, there are only two other capital cities that exceed our rate of growth in Canada, (Toronto and Edmonton). Typically capital cities have a harder time growing than non-capital cities because of the strong government presence in those economies," said Hiles. hiles说： " 现在，我们很高兴的看到增长的态势。在那个报告中，你能看到，在加拿只有两种省会城市，超过我们的增长（多伦多和埃德蒙顿）。在这些经济体中，典型的省会城市比非省会城市成长难度会越来越大，这是由于强势政府的存在。
Regina saw growth in all the sections mentioned in the report, except one: employment.在所有的有关报告中，里贾纳显现着增长，除了就业。 Regina saw the employment rate fall two per cent since last year.里贾纳自去年以来，就业率下降2个百分点。
Hiles said that the third quarter is when university students leave their jobs and return to school, which could account for the drop. hiles表示，第三季是，当大学生离开自己的职位，回到学校，可统计为下降。
"It's a matter of when did the job disappear," he said. "现在的问题是什么时候工作消失了 "他说。
Edmonton ranked first in the report, with a growth index of 30.1, surpassing Calgary for the first time.在报告中，埃德蒙顿以指数为30.1，名列第一，第一次超过了卡尔加里。 Calgary slipped down to second place at 24.1.卡尔加里以指数24.1 滑落到第二位。

However, its labour market is softening with below-average job growth and above-average unemployment of seven per cent.然而，其劳动力市场回软，表现在低于全国平均水平的就业率和高于全国平均失业率的7 ％ 。
Vancouver's 17.3 ranking, slightly below Toronto's, is due to the fact that while it did not excel in any area, the city was above average in many areas, including strong population and job growth.温哥华的指数17.3略低于多伦多，然而事实上，尽管它没有超过其他地区，但在许多领域它高于平均水平，如强大的人口和就业的增长。
Among the larger cities, Ottawa-Gatineau had the lowest ranking at just 4.7, reflecting what the report's author CIBC economist Benjamin Tal said was "some softening in employment growth, housing activity and non-residential building permits.报告的作者，帝国商业银行经济学家本杰明塔尔说： "在其中较大的城市，渥太华-加蒂诺拥有最低的增长指数4.7 。有些偏软，表现在就业的增长、住房活跃性和非住宅建筑许可证上" 。
