Thank You All for Standing Up For Small Business

Hi All,

Just a quick note to thank you for taking the time today to stand up for our small businesses.  It was great to see so many of you participating.  I know how frustrated, stressed and tired everyone is at this point so your participation was greatly appreciated.  
 
We received a lot of media coverage and are compiling it all into a file which I will share with you once it's complete.  Our BIA and you, our members, have received a lot of coverage on social media as well.  Below is a link to a BlogTO article covering today's rally - a number of you are included in this article and on their instagram account.  Also check out 680News' instagram account - some great video of you there too.
 
I want to say a special and huge thanks to Angie Power who manages all of our media - she is the best at getting us so much coverage for today's event and for all of our other initiatives in the past few months.  And a big and special thanks to Eszter Czibok - our amazing Social Media manager - who constantly keeps our posts relevant and creative.
 
When we started this week the #thinkoutsidethebigbox wasn't anything - it didn't exist - in a few short days BIAs worked together and made it happen.  This week was an excellent example of taking the phrase "we're all in this together" and bringing it to life or to be more accurate - bringing it to the streets.
 
Thank you all again and here's the BlogTO link:
