Industry, Energy and Technology Minister Andrew Parsons says more than ever, there are so many opportunities for the future of Newfoundland and Labrador. Parsons says these opportunities are spread across many different fields. He says the tech industry hoping to fill 2000 new jobs in the next few years, mining is getting more investment from outside the province, and a new year will see advancement in the renewable sector like hydrogen.
