Hon. Dennis King, Premier of Prince Edward Island issued the following statement on Small Business Week:
“This week, we recognize and thank small businesses across our province for the economic and social contributions they make to our Island every day.
Many of our communities are defined by the small businesses that help them flourish, and the adaptability and grit showcased by so many of these businesses over the last few years is truly inspiring. These entrepreneurs are our neighbors, our friends and our family – who, for generations, have remained steadfast in supporting Island residents while fostering a strong and resilient economy for Prince Edward Island
Whether you’re starting a new venture or are part of your family’s small business, I’d like to wholeheartedly thank you for your service, innovation and perseverance. Our government is committed to providing Island small businesses with the tools and resources to continue to adapt, thrive and expand, as well as the financial backing and advice to new business owners to set up their own successful operations.
I ask all residents to join me in supporting small businesses across Prince Edward Island. By investing locally, we help ensure a prosperous future for our Island that everyone can enjoy.”
