Thinking of Starting Your Own Business? Here's What You Need to Know

If you’re like most millennials, the thought probably crossed your mind to ditch your day job and become your own boss. Millions of people are doing the same! Here are some things to consider before you take the plunge:

  • Research is Key: Don't jump in blind! Thoroughly research your industry, including competitor analysis, employment legalities, and financial considerations.

  • Free Resources Abound: Utilize the Canadian Small Business Financing Program for a wealth of information and assistance, including mentoring programs. The Black Entrepreneurship Program also offers targeted support for minority entrepreneurs.

  • Understand the Business Side: Running a business is complex. Be prepared to manage staffing, healthcare, payroll, and other financial aspects beyond just your area of expertise.

Why this matters: Millennials are a generation known for wanting to be their own bosses. This information is crucial for those considering taking the leap into small business ownership. Understanding the resources available and the importance of research can increase your chances of success.


City Dwellers Packing Up: Big City Costs Pushing Young Families Out

Big city dreams turning into unaffordable realities? Young families are leading the exodus from Canada's major metropolises like Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. Here's why:

  • Housing crunch: Skyrocketing housing prices are pushing families out of big city cores, forcing them to seek more affordable options elsewhere in the province.

  • Remote work opens doors: The rise of remote and hybrid work arrangements allows people to ditch the daily commute and live in more affordable areas.

  • Millennial baby boom: Canada's population boom is fueled by millennials now in their late 20s and early 30s, a prime demographic for starting families that often prioritize space and affordability over a downtown address.

Why this matters: Struggling with soaring rents and sky-high home prices? You're not alone. This trend highlights the challenges millennials face in big cities. The good news? Remote work opportunities and expanding public transit networks in some areas are opening doors to a more affordable lifestyle outside the city center.

🎙️ Get Into It: Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend podcast. After 25 years at the Late Night desk, Conan realized that the only people at his holiday party were the men and women who worked for him. Over the years and despite thousands of interviews, Conan has never made a real and lasting friendship with any of his celebrity guests. So, he started a podcast to do just that. Deeper, unboundedly playful, and free from FCC regulations, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend is a weekly opportunity for Conan to hang out with the people he enjoys most and perhaps find some real friendship along the way. Listen on Apple or Spotify.
