Moose Jaw is now among the top four Canadian cities in which to own a small business, according to the Canadian Federation Independent Business Report (CFIB).
Communities in Boom, a Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CIFB) report ranks Canada’s top entrepreneurial cities, ranks Moose Jaw as its fourth most business Friendly city in Canada for 2009.
As it stands, Moose Jaw’s current population is over 20,000.
In the Canadian Federation Independent Boom (CFIB) there are approximately 100 cities accounted for the ranking.
IN 2008, Moose Jaw was in the ninth spot of the rankings, and after a year, you can see them move up five spots to fourth place.
The reason for the move in rankings is due the large increase in the number of business start-ups in the past year.
Looking at this from one perspective, it is great to see that a Moose Jaw is getting the recognition it deserves. As it is stands at fourth for Canada’s most business friendly city, it gives newcomers to Canada a better chance to start and run a good business.
It also gives people a chance to start fresh if they already live in Canada and want to test themselves by opening their own business that they have longed to do.
Moose Jaw is showing that it is a city to be reckoned with in Canada, not to be left behind by any of the bigger cities, such as Toronto or Vancouver.
Congratulations Moose Jaw on this accomplishment, and I hope to see more positive reports like this in the future.
