A Message from the Chair Across British Columbia small businesses are growing, innovating and making our communities more resilient to global economic forces. For some of our remote communities the only businesses around for hundreds of miles are family-run small businesses, providing food, clothing, services and shelter to visitors. For many communities, small businesses are providing tourists with unique cultural and eco-tourism experiences. In our resource–based communities small businesses are helping their communities diversify their economies by growing their creative sectors and finding new markets for their resources and services. Since the Jobs Plan was launched in 2012 the Province has been working to grow the creative sector and others through initiatives like the #BCTECH Strategy and the launch of Red Tape Reduction Day, with 37 regulations repealed, reaffirming B.C.’s leadership in removing outdated and unnecessary regulations. In support of government’s effort to establish British Columbia as the most business-friendly jurisdiction in the country, the Small Business Roundtable embarked on a new round of Regional Consultations in 2016 to further the BC Small Business
