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.

Great discussions at this morning’s All-Party Entrepreneurship Caucus on Parliament Hill! CFIB shared the impact of trade tensions and tariffs on #SMEs. Thanks to @mikekelloway, @seblemire, @BradleyVis and the MPs that attended for supporting this important initiative. #CndPoli

These are excellent proposals @BradleyVis and consistent with CFIB’s recommendations. Happy to work with you to move these small business friendly policies forward.
Today, I announced two new Conservative proposals to lower taxes, reduce administrative burdens, and help Canadian entrepreneurs succeed: • Increase the GST/HST small-supplier threshold from $30,000 to $60,000 and; • Increase the federal Small Business Deduction limit from $500,000 to $700,000. Both thresholds would be indexed to inflation, so small businesses aren't penalized simply because operations get more expensive. After years of rising costs, trade uncertainty, and increasingly complicated tax rules, Canadian entrepreneurs deserve a break. That is why Conservatives introduced our Economic Action Plan; because it’s time to make it easier to start a business, grow a business, and create jobs in Canada. #cdnpoli

It is great to see a new federal red tape reduction strategy which includes several long-standing CFIB recommendations.  The new requirement for regulators to reduce regulatory burden costs by $2 for every $1 added is a significant step forward.

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
