Minister of Red Tape Reduction Andrea Khanjin spoke to local business leaders Wednesday morning at a Brockville & District Chamber of Commerce breakfast at the Brockville Country Club.
The event kicked off Small Business Month, with Khanjin highlighting government efforts to cut red tape so entrepreneurs can focus on serving customers, expanding their businesses, and hiring more staff.
Steve Clark, who attended the breakfast, said he appreciated hearing the ideas and feedback from the local business community on how government can become more efficient.
Khanjin emphasized that reducing unnecessary regulations helps small business owners spend less time on paperwork and more time on growth and innovation. The audience shared suggestions on how government programs and processes could be improved to better support local businesses.
Officials say events like this give both the public and government a chance to collaborate on practical solutions for small business success.
