Choose local when you can. Every purchase matters.

Healthy communities need successful businesses to provide jobs and to keep the economy growing.

With US tariffs creating new challenges for BC businesses - where we spend our dollars matters more than ever.

For B.C. businesses navigating U.S. tariffs, Export Navigator has gathered helpful resources, tools and supports in one place: https://exportnavigator.ca/tariffs/

It has come to our attention that phishing emails are claiming to sell our membership list for a fee.

The Chamber does not sell our members' information - our members actively select the information that they wish to share with the public via our Business Directory. https://members.cranbrookchamber.com/list/

Members of the public can contact our Chamber members by using our Business Directory - each year we process hundreds of contact requests and route them to our members.

Stay vigilante for fraud! And thank you to our members who have alerted us to these emails.

Trade talks between Canada and the US broke down Friday night, and as of Saturday morning, 50 per cent tariffs are in effect on roughly $27 billion CAD of Canadian goods.

BC is more exposed than any other province in this round, and Canada’s counter-tariffs arrive September 8, which will raise costs for businesses that import from the US.

Visit https://www.cranbrookchamber.com/us-tariffs-what-cranbrook-chamber-members-need-to-know/ to learn more about the potential impacts, and what you can do as a business owner at this time.
