The Government of Canada is requesting public assistance in preventing the spread of COVID-19 through measures such as social distancing and cancellation or postponement of gatherings and events. In order to comply and do our part to slow the curve of this outbreak, the Chamber has decided to postpone all events until further notice. We appreciate the time and effort that everyone has put into planning their events with us and and we will work quickly to reschedule. We will let you know the new dates as soon as possible.
In addition, our Directors have been working closely with the Chamber of Commerce Brantford-Brant, Downtown Brantford Business Improvement Area, and Downtown Paris BIA to support our local businesses in response to this pandemic. Through partnerships with Brant.One and ShopBrantford, we will share resources and supports available to you during this challenging time. Please pay close attention to this page where we will publish, and update frequently, a list of relevant and useful links.
Our Directors are committed to continuing to support you throughout this uncertain time and will have regular virtual meetings, the results of which will be shared with you electronically. As always, please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have. We encourage you to have a look at the Membership Directory on our website and support local by purchasing gift cards for future use, or ordering online.
