Marriage On The Decline In T.Bay Region

Marriage is on the decline in the Thunder Bay Region according to Statistics Canada's new census data.  That isn't stopping Shelby Ch'ng from opening up a new bridal boutique.  Ch'ng feels there's room for more wedding stores in the City.  Wedding Planner Bethanie Kramer adds she too is seeing an increase in business but attributes that to the fact that wedding planning is new to the City.  According to Stats Canada married couples make up 67.6 percent of families in Thunder Bay and common law families make up 13.7 percent.
