FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Stittsville, Ontario (January 22, 2018) – Small businesses, many of which are family-owned and operated, are struggling just to make ends meet. The Wynne Liberals’ policies have hurt the economy, increased the cost of running a business, and made it impossible to thrive and grow in Ontario.
Goldie Ghamari, Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario Candidate for Carleton, announced the launch of “Carleton Conversations” in 2017, a series of talks with Goldie about issues that matter to the residents of Carleton.
The fourth in the series will be “Talk with Goldie about Small Business” with special guest Steve Clark, MPP.
