🚨 Canada is already facing an entrepreneurial drought. Now 63% of business owners plan to exit within the next decade, but only 6% have a formal succession plan.
With over $2 trillion in business assets at risk nationally, succession planning has never been more important.

📢 CFIB is calling on the City of Saskatoon to avoid shifting more of the property tax burden onto small businesses & maintain the current commercial-to-residential tax ratio.
Yesterday, I joined @GlobalSaskatoon to discuss why this matters for businesses, investment & jobs.

Canada’s succession crunch is coming.
📈 63% of small business owners plan to exit within the next decade, yet only 6% have a formal succession plan.
That puts over $2 trillion in business assets at risk, along with jobs, local services and communities across Canada.
But there’s also a huge opportunity for the next generation of entrepreneurs to take over established Canadian businesses and build on what their owners have created.
CFIB’s latest report explores the challenges and what governments can do to support successful ownership transitions.

💳Lower interchange fees could mean thousands in annual savings for more small businesses. But Visa and Mastercard are raising other fees, potentially clawing back some of those savings. Small businesses need real relief, not new fees that eat into it.

🤝 Thanks to Ministers Cheveldayoff & Schmalz for meeting with CFIB to discuss youth employment, labour shortages & how we can connect Saskatchewan's young people with small firms looking to hire.
A productive conversation focused on practical solutions for employers & workers.

1 in 2 small business owners say they’d advise against starting a business right now. “Small business owners have spent years navigating rising costs & now the tariff war is piling fresh uncertainty & added costs on top of already weak consumer demand & low business confidence.”
Only 18 per cent of small business owners advise starting a business today, said the Canadian Federation of Independent Business. Read on financialpost.com/entreprene…
🚨The last thing Saskatoon businesses need right now is a higher property tax burden.
Small firms are facing uncertainty & rising costs, and more businesses are closing than opening. Now is the time to support entrepreneurship, not hike costs! cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatoon…

Local policies can make a big difference to the cost and complexity of running a small business. CFIB’s new Municipal Report Card grades 66 municipalities across Canada on cost and regulatory burdens, as well as small business friendliness.

🎙️Ottawa has announced new supports for businesses impacted by tariffs. But will they actually reach the firms that need them most?
Brianna Solberg joins The 306 on CBC Radio One to discuss why tariff supports need to be simple, accessible & available to businesses of all sizes.
