Rural and remote

This describes the place named by the program’s location label. Programs can train in several towns, so it is not every site.

Basic cost of living: $55,159 a year Market Basket Measure 2025, Moncton, New Brunswick, for two adults with two children. A modest, basic basket (the poverty line), not a resident’s budget. A size-class region is not the town itself.
