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.
