A Budget Spread Too Thin, says Canadian Chamber of Commerce
We are pleased to be able to provide you with our initial reaction to today's federal budget via our just-issued press release. Our staff in Ottawa have been in lockups today to determine what this means for business and for Canadian communities.

Have You Met This Month's Featured Member - Honeylush Hair Studio
|
 |
Long-time friends and White Rock locals, Stephanie and Krista opened Honeylush Hair Studio in September 2015 with the idea of providing the White Rock community (and beyond) a comfortable, yet beautiful salon with a 'downtown' feel.
Stephanie had been working as a stylist in White Rock/South Surrey area for over 12 years and recognized the need for a new, fresh space in White Rock. She approached Krista (who at the time was working for the City of Richmond as a Recreation Programmer) when the Saltaire space became available as it was an opportunity that could not be passed up. Krista was craving a more creative outlet and jumped at the opportunity to partner with Stephanie.
With the client experience as the first priority, Honeylush carefully selected two product lines: Schwarzkopf for hair colour and Bumble and Bumble for their amazing quality of products and continual education for stylists.
Why the name Honeylush? Honey is pure, humble and beautiful; Lush emulates luxury and pleasure - all things the salon hopes to achieve and represent for the clients.
Why the bee in the logo? Besides the correlation with honey, bees are highly social and operate within a team-based community. They symbolize abundance, hard work and love - all things the salon values within the working environment and experience for the clients.
Honeylush Hair Studio is located in beautiful White Rock, B.C. in the Saltaire building situated at the corner of Johnston Street and Thrift Avenue.

"Your 82 year old grandmother calls you at work in the middle of the day and she is in tears. She explains that she has just been told by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) that she will go to jail if she doesn't pay her taxes right away. Scared and confused, she gave the caller personal and financial information. What would you do?"
