Insurance shouldn't cost more just because your business is in NL. At 15%, small businesses here pay Canada's highest retail sales tax on insurance premiums. NB, PEI, NS, AB and BC charge none. We're calling on the provincial government to eliminate it!

I was pleased to co-host the All Party Entrepreneurship Caucus this week! It was a productive discussion about the challenges Canada’s small businesses are facing due to tariffs and the uncertainty they’ve created. It was very clear from the discussion that the government needs to be more transparent about the applicability of Canadian tariffs. A special thanks to the @CFIB for consistently highlighting how the government can better support our SMEs and entrepreneurs. I look forward to expanding on these discussions going forward! #cdnpoli

I hear a lot about the disconnect between employers and young job seekers. That’s why I loved the recent Canadian Federation of Independent Business (@CFIB) report on “Bridging the gap between small businesses and Canada’s youth”, and I invited the CFIB onto my podcast to discuss it. You might be interested to know that, according to the CFIB, an unsolicited in-person application is a great way for a young person to pitch themselves to an employer.

This Federal budget, CFIB is asking the government to reduce the all-time-high costs of doing business in Canada as a small firm with these four recommendations. Strengthening these businesses, including CFIB members, will secure Canada’s economy in the face of uncertainty. #CFIBSince1971 #SmallBusiness #SmallBusinessSupport #CanadianSmallBusiness
