Call Joan Deegan* at 623-3393 (24 hr, pager) Small Business the Strength of the Local Economy Kathy Simpson, Rural Community Advisor, OMAFRA For years many municipalities municipalities spent a great deal of time trying to persuade outside companies to base their manufacturing facilities facilities and plants within their community. This was the "smoke stack chasing" philosophy philosophy of the 1950s and 60s. Communities believed that manufacturing plants would create jobs for the locals, be a continued source of tax revenue for municipalities and gener ate and circulate dollars within the local community- community- Today we know that depending solely on big business for jobs and revenue revenue as a method of economic economic development is not the answer. A more diversified diversified tax base is needed. In addition development within the local community community produces more cost- effective results than from attracting industry from outside. Small businesses are becoming the backbone for local economic devel opment. Here are some facts on small business: • 97% of all business in Canada is small (sales under $2 million, less than 10 employees). • Small business accounts for 80% of employment or creation of new jobs. • The service sector is the fastest growing industry industry (72% of that industry is small business). • Service industries are more stable than manufacturing manufacturing and less likely to be affected by fluctuations in the economy. • Small business accounts for 80% of innovation innovation - big businesses tend to be more cautious and reluctant to change. The most effective way to create jobs, innovation and diversification is to encourage small businesses businesses to develop and grow within communities. What are you as a consumer, member of an organization or a local taxpayer doing to support the new or longtime longtime small businesses in your area? called to order at 7:35 p.m. by Chairman Willie Woo, who welcomed the 26 people people in attendance.

They have two children, children, Dominic 20, at University and Hazel at home. Mr. Packer stated that there have been immense changes to the economy over the past 25 years, with the trend to larger companies companies or conglomerates. Today, ' Ontario Hydro" produces about 85% of the province's electrical needs. By the year 2010, as a result of deregulation, and/or privatization, privatization, it will only be able to supply about 35%, the rest being supplied by independent companies or utilities. Ontario Hydro will be split up into separate companies companies such as generating and transmission companies. companies. In order to survive, it will possibly have to expand in other countries such as the U.S.A. Today, Hydro makes payments to governments governments in lieu of taxes. But, with the coming changes, governments will more than likely be looking at a property property tax. At present, Darlington buys locally where possible, thus helping die economy of the area.
