The booklet which includes includes the information on smaller enterprises was recently recently released by the Canadian Canadian Federation of Independent Independent Business to help the organization's 54,000 members members explain to customers, < clients and suppliers their contribution to national and community life. What's it all mean? In down-to-earth terms, the booklet emphasizes that the activities of the corner store, small manufacturers, farmers, fishermen, professionals, professionals, even weekly newspapers, newspapers, are the real job creators in Canada and deserve deserve a hearty pat on the back for their efforts. The long standing myth that big businesses are providing providing most of the new jobs in Canada has been shattered. Meanwhile, the grassroots entrepreneur is often the sparkplug in community ac- . tivities, ranging from volunteer volunteer organizations to the political endeavours that ensure public participation. Many of Canada's top-line burea*ucrats have difficulty coming to grips with the phenomenal success record of independent business, yet the achievements are very real indeed. Slowly but surely, though, Canada's entrepreneurs are getting a fairer share of the national attention they deserve. Following the swim-up ceremonies ceremonies last Wednesday evening the Beavers and their parents enjoyed taking part in a ball game in the school yard along with their leaders.
