Lobby group urges municipalities to take the red tape challenge

The Canadian Federation of Independent Business is issuing its third national Red Tape Challenge.
The event challenges municipalities to get rid of one government rule for every new adopted one in an effort to reduce red tape that hinders business.
In a recent CFIB survey of almost 9,000 business owners across the country, half of the respondents said they felt their local government was doing either a poor or terrible job of keeping rules and compliance costs for business at a reasonable level.
