Many Manitoba small businesses are worried higher fuel costs could put a damper on the summer tourism season. But local tourism could help soften some of that pressure, especially if Manitobans choose to explore closer to home this summer.

Heading out to explore Canada this summer? Just don't get too attached to that great local wine, craft beer, or spirit you discover along the way—you probably won't be able to have it shipped home.
Governments are now 24 days past their own deadline to implement direct-to-consumer alcohol shipping.
For governments that say internal trade is a top priority, the follow-through has been severely lacking.

Congrats @MercedesGlobal what shoes to fill!

Quite a gross way to treat a witness - one of CFIB’s team @vgasparro. You entirely missed her point. The problem is not just the communications from government - it is the nonsensical criteria themselves.
CFIB is doing its job. You seem keen to shoot the messenger.
Governments set a May 31 deadline to remove one of Canada's most obvious internal trade barriers: direct-to-consumer alcohol shipping.
The result? Only Manitoba and New Brunswick got it done.
If premiers are serious about breaking down internal trade barriers, they need to start meeting their own deadlines. Small businesses don't need more announcements—they need action and results.

Thank you MP @GarnettGenuis for highlighting CFIB's recent report on the challenges SMEs face in hiring young people. There is a need for cost relief, and reducing taxes is the best way to do it.
