The holidays are just around the corner, and what better way to spread cheer than by supporting local Canadian businesses? This year, skip the big-box stores and choose unique, heartfelt gifts that celebrate the creativity and craftsmanship of some of my small businesses besties across Canada. Shopping local isn’t just a feel-good choice—it’s a way to make a real impact on our communities and help me and my small businesses friends thrive. Join me as I spotlight some of my favourite Canadian businesses that should be on your holiday gift list!
