Chamber presents to provincial budget committee
On Monday morning, Chamber CEO Bruce Williams brought concerns raised by our members and Chamber Champions to BC’s Select Standing Committee on Fiance and Government Services.
The Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce was asked to present to the committee along with the Burnaby Board of Trade, Greater Vancouver Board of Trade and Surrey Board of Trade. These organizations are leading advocates for business in BC and help government set priorities ahead of next year’s BC budget. Among the many issues raised were finding and keeping workers, fair taxation and fiscal prudence.
“We thank the province for including the voice of Greater Victoria businesses and we look forward to continuing to working closely on programs and policies that will be key to growing our region’s private sector,” Chamber CEO Bruce Williams said.
You can listen to Bruce’s comments to the committee, starting after the 9:28 mark.
