Small businesses are reaching a breaking point.
In this wide-ranging and candid conversation, Grumpy Taxpayers President John Treleaven, CFIB BC Representative Ryan Mitton & Harbour Digital Media CEO John Juricic unpack the real pressures facing small businesses across British Columbia—and Canada more broadly.
Representing over 100,000 members nationwide, Canadian Federation of Independent Business brings frontline data and hard truths to the table, including:
• Why BC currently leads the country in small business confidence—after hitting historic lows earlier this year
• How uncompetitive taxes (Employer Health Tax, CPP, EI, WorkSafeBC) punish growth and hiring
• Why BC’s PST system quietly drives up the cost of housing, construction, and manufacturing
• The massive opportunity in removing interprovincial trade barriers
• How crime, safety, and declining downtown conditions are hurting local businesses
• Why governments collect more but deliver less—and how that disconnect fuels frustration
This is an unfiltered discussion about tax waste, economic competitiveness, and what it will actually take to rebuild confidence for the businesses that power 98% of Canada’s economy.
