Happy Canada Day from the 
Staff of Richmond Hill Chamber of Commerce
& Volunteer Recognition with Annual General Meeting
Are You Ready for the NEW Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation - effective as of July 1, 2014
 
Our Chamber agrees in principal that spam is not a good thing, but sees the legislation does little to address this. 
Rather, we see it as inhibiting commerce and enterprise. It is also putting a large workload on a short time frame on small business, which needs to comply by July 1. The chamber network is assisting businesses to understand the impact and how to comply. Read more ....

This is a MUST ATTEND session - one that will have a BIG impact on the way you communicate and connect with people in the future!
