Kenora Chamber of Commerce Business Survey

43 percent of businesses surveyed in Kenora say they expect their company will perform better financially in 2010 than last year.

That was one of the findings from the 4th annual Chamber of Commerce Business Survey.

Joe Fregeau from Meyers, Norris, Penny helped draft the survey and says he was a bit surprised that few business owners felt tourism should be one of the main focuses of the city.

Only 12 percent of respondants felt tourism should be the focus of the City of Kenora's economic revitalization.

19 percent felt there should be more focus on roads and other infrastructure.
