For five years now, British Columbia has proclaimed October as small business month.
Did you know that small business
accounts for 57 per cent of all private sector employment in the
province? That's the second-highest rate in Canada.
And, in 2010, small businesses in British Columbia created 13,700 new jobs in this province.
