CFIB Survey Crictical of City

A survey by the Canadian Federation of Independant Business suggests the City of Kenora

could be doing a better job.

The CFIB polled 37 business owners in Kenora this summer and 81 percent felt they were
not getting good value for the money spent on public service.

77 percent of respondants also felt the city had a poor awareness of the business sector.

Where Kenora did get good marks was in reasonable tax levels.

43 percent of business owners felt tax rates were reasonable, which was the tops among
the communities rated in northern Ontario.
