Are you currently using any of the Chambers Member Privileges?
Yes, I have and they have saved my business money!
No, I have not had time to look at them.
I did not know I could save money through the Chamber!
From the Desk of the CEO...
This has been a very busy week so far…and it is only Wednesday!

We are excited to partner with the Paris & District Chamber of Commerce on a service and product business, related to COVID-19 recovery, to launch next week. Look for a special announcement shortly.

Also this week, President Ken McNaughton, 1st Vice President Paul Bisanti, and I attended the Ontario Chamber of Commerce AGM and Policy Convention. The Chamber was a co-sponsor of three successful policy resolutions and was proud to support several others with direct potential benefit to our members. We will introduce a special Advocacy and Policy Update later this spring to update and solicit feedback on several active policy files. 


Stay safe, test negative, stay positive.
