CEO MESSAGE: “What’s on Your Radar?”

ell, who saw that coming? Global oil
e WCB “2015 Strategic Plan” finally stated that a review

W

of the rate setting model would occur. It did not. As of February of 2016, a “Request for Proposal” for the analysis was started, but the actual review itself is nowhere in sight. Analyzing recently released WCB data, we have determined that the premium rates used this year to calculate what you would pay are nothing more than an extension of the previous years. e reduction in costs that occurred last year had zero bearing on this year’s rates! prices plunging below the $30 a barrel mark has oil producing regions around the world in extreme distress and everyone wondering when will it all end.

2015 was one tough year for the provinces hospitality industry, and 2016 is proving to

Jim Bence, President & CEO

It begs the question, “what is the WCB doing?” ey have been on notice for 5 years that they have a problem, and because it has been largely ignored, they have been allowed to continue to over-charge the employers of this province to the tune of 100’s of millions of dollars. be even more challenging. And without a crystal ball, we are leſt with the pressing question, “What’s next?!?”

We don’t have a crystal ball, or a “Long Island Medium” on staff, but here are a few things that are on our radar. All of them impact your bottom line, and unless we hold them up to the light and make others aware, these issues could wash over our industry like a tsunami and sweep us away before we see the wave coming.
is leads to other very concerning questions. Some are asking “Is the WCB mismanaged”? Others query “At what point does the Board of the WCB fulfill their mandate and govern the administration more effectively”? e inactivity of the board to respond in a timely fashion to years of protests by employers defies reason and we wonder if it isn’t time for the government to intervene on behalf of all employers of the province.

WCB vs YOUR BOTTOM LINE.

Without the advocacy of the Saskatchewan Hotel & Hospitality Association, and the Stakeholders Advisory Committee to the Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB), you would not have seen the cheque you did from the WCB. ey were going to keep a massive portion of the money they had over collected from the employers of Saskatchewan and it wasn’t until we put extreme pressure on them, did they relent and return the entire $141 million dollars that was over collected in 2014.

ON-LINE TRAVEL AGENCIES
COMMISSIONS vs YOUR BOTTOM LINE.

Expedia, Booking.com and that Trivago guy have been eating our lunch for years, and there seems to be no end in sight…or is there? We have some ideas on how we can assist you to keep more of your revenues and decrease the amount of cash you spend every year in commissions.

We need to come together as an industry and engage the OTA’s in an effort to negotiate lower commission rates (You pay 20-25% where some big brands pay as low as 12-15%), and, find ways to drive the customer directly to your door and avoid the OTA channels. In a time when expense management is a critical piece of everyday conversations, there is no bigger discussion that needs to happen.
In a stunning revelation at their AGM last year, the WCB confessed that they had over collected yet again, this time to the tune of another $91 million dollars. e SHHA has maintained for years that the rate setting model isn’t responding to the dropping costs of claims and warned the WCB that this was going to continue to occur.

AIRBNB vs YOUR BOTTOM LINE.

If you think OTA’s are gorging themselves on your revenues, just wait till Airbnb gets a grip in Saskatchewan.

PAYMENT CARD INDUSTRY COMPLIANCE vs YOUR PEACE OF MIND.

Branded properties are all working diligently on credit card privacy and PCI compliance. Are you?

And true to form, when Cam Broten was asked at the Saskatchewan Chamber Political Forum of his thoughts on
Yours in Hospitality, the proposed changes, he said, and I summarize, “I wouldn’t change anything. I would help some of the underperforming stores with their lighting”. Typically status quo from the party who, by ignoring the government liquor stores that have been hemorrhaging money for years, actually reduced the flow of money into the General Revenue Fund.

When the Saskatchewan Party is re-elected, we will see the changes we have lobbied so hard for and our members can finally compete on the same even playing field as everyone else.

SLGA UPDATE March 2016

  • s you may be aware, in June of 2015 the Saskatchewan
  • In December of 2015 Raynelle Wilson, Director of

Hotel & Hospitality Association (SHHA) took part Enterprise with SLGA, met with the Advisory Committee

A

in the formation of the Stakeholders Advisory Committee to SLGA. is group was comprised of buyers and sellers of beverage alcohol in the Saskatchewan. to discuss and elicit feedback on how to proceed, and, create an effective and efficient liquor distribution system. Very productive discussions regarding implementation, pricing, distribution, supply, and selection took place, along with an agreement that further meetings would be beneficial to all parties.
Never before has such a group of experts assembled to discuss mutual concerns specific to liquor. e committee, consisting of the SHHA, the Saskatchewan Liquor Vendors Association, Restaurants Canada, ALES Club, Fine Wines Saskatchewan, and, the Canadian Tax Payers Federation found many areas of common interest and formed a plan to better engage the government and the SLGA.
Last week the SLGA, SHHA, Restaurants Canada, SLVA and other stakeholders met for 4 sessions over 2 days to discuss a broad range of topics. Structured as a “Focus Group”, questions and feedback were centered on the new “Level Playing Field”, Retail Store Permits, Supply Chain Model, Pricing, Online Ordering, Inducements, Special Occasion Permits, Agent Stocked Warehousing, the Special Order Desk, Payment Terms/Methods, and the RFP Process, etc.
rough the combined efforts of the Advisory Committee, and meaningful discussions with SLGA Minister Don McMorris, the Saskatchewan Party announced sweeping changes to liquor legislation and in what way beverage alcohol would be bought and sold in the province should the Saskatchewan Party be re-elected on April 4.
econsensusoftheSHHAwasthatthemeetingswerevery productive and represented an opportunity for our members to offer their opinion. As the end-user, SHHA members have the single biggest impact on the overall customer experience, and know what drives consumer satisfaction, and also have strong opinions on how best to serve the public. We were leſt with the impression that the SLGA, as a partner in the process, heard us loud and clear.
ese changes include: • One licence for all liquor retailers (Retail Store Permit). • One wholesale, unified price for all R.S.P’s. • e conversion of 40 public liquor stores to R.S.P. • Introduce and RFP 12 new permits in underrepresented

  • areas.
  • e intent of the meetings was not to come to any decisions,

but for stakeholders to meet and come away with information that could be used to enhance liquor procurement and delivery in the province.
Encouraged by the announcement, the Advisory Committee was very interested in how the new policies and procedures would be implemented, and, wanted to be an integral part of the creation and development of the systems required to deliver these proposed changes.
So far the SHHA is encouraged by what we heard, and eagerly look forward to post-election changes. ■

Regina owes its existence to the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR). This town site was chosen to replace Battleford as the capital of the Northwest Territories, after the CPR abandoned its plans to build the country's first transcontinental railway line along a more northerly route. The new settlement was named Regina upon the arrival of the first train in 1882. The name was chosen to honour Queen Victoria, the reigning monarch at the time. Princess Louise, daughter of Queen Victoria and wife of Governor General Marquis of Lorne suggested the name "Regina." The official transfer of the capital from Battleford to Regina occurred in 1883. It was soon followed by the relocation of the North West Mounted Police headquarters from Fort Walsh in the Cypress Hills.
