When I registered my business at my local Ontario business office the municipality's economic development department asked if I would like to be on their mailing list. They share the office. I said sure, I could use all the help I could get starting off a new business.
Once per month they send an e-mail, usually with an invitation or two to various business-related seminars. This month I was finally able to sign up for one that didn't conflict with my schedule and offered some value to my business. Its Tips from the Auditor. A tax auditor from Revenue Canada will be offering tips on income tax returns, acceptable expenses, record keeping, and how to survive a tax audit. What a great seminar for those business owners that decide to tackle their own taxes (such as yours truly).
I think its great that my local municipality has this kind of service in place and I recommend any new (under 5 years) business owner looks to see if their city offers a similar service.
