CFIB has a seat at the table when it comes to the issues that matter to our small business members. In January, Laura Jones, Senior VP, Research, Economics and Western Canada was named as one of the panelists on BC's new BC Tax Competitiveness Panel.
In response to the growing concern from BC's small business owners regarding local government spending, and to the work done by CFIB, the BC government has introduced legislation creating the Office of the Auditor General for Local Government. This is a major victory for BC's small businesses.
