Elections Canada is far too slow in recognizing interference in our #democracy. They ought to have known (and acted) before the election was even called. The next Canadian government needs to ban Musk's Nazi platform and all of his businesses from operating in #Canada. #canPoli #canBiz

Did you know we had a freetrade agreement with Korea?

If you own or work for a Canadian SME who wants to expand their customer base, check out the Federal govt resources to help you export your products.

Lots of opportunities if you look for them

Do you consider a company as “Canadian” based on its operations in #Canada or its ownership? If it’s the former, then you must see Walmart, Home Depot, and McDonald’s as Canadian, while I do not. For me, “Canadian” means Canadian-owned and operated. #canBiz #business

If you own or work for a SME in Canada - find out about the support programs in place to grow, export, and hire

Lots of announcements for SMEs are overlooked by theirs who are too busy running their businesses to know about the programs

Talk to your MzP’s office about these programs

CUPE says Hajdu's arbitration order to end Air Canada flight attendants' strike is 'crushing' Charter rights | CBC News
Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu says she has invoked Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code to allow binding arbitration between the airline and its union and has ordered operations to resume — although it's not immediately clear when the 10,000 flight attendants will return to work after going on strike just hours earlier.

I must admit that I have very little sympathy for Canadian #business owners who put all their eggs in one basket, relying on #USA for their income. I do, however, feel bad for workers who are being screwed. They need to ask questions of their bosses who got them into this situation. #canBiz
