🤔 What’s on our minds

Why Now Is the Time to Invest in Canadian Companies

With the U.S. proposing a 25% tariff on Canadian imports, our businesses are facing new challenges—but this is also a chance to invest in our own economy. By supporting Canadian companies, we can strengthen local industries and reduce reliance on unpredictable global markets. Although the tariffs have been temporarily postponed, strengthening our economy remains more crucial than ever.

At FrontFundr, we connect everyday Canadians with investment opportunities in homegrown businesses, giving you the chance to fuel the next wave of innovation and growth.

Why Invest in Canadian Companies Now?

  • Protect Our Economy: Higher tariffs mean increased costs for Canadian businesses. Investing locally helps them stay competitive and resilient.

  • Support Job Creation: Small and mid-sized businesses drive employment in Canada. Your investments help create and sustain local jobs.

  • Foster Innovation at Home: Canadian companies are developing world-class technology, clean energy solutions, and advanced manufacturing—let’s keep that progress here.

  • Reduce Dependence on Foreign Markets: Strengthening Canadian industries means we’re less vulnerable to trade disputes and external economic pressures.

  • Build Wealth Locally: Investing in Canadian businesses keeps capital within our borders, benefiting local communities and the economy.

  • Sustainable Growth: Buying and investing local reduces transportation emissions and supports environmentally conscious business practices.

This is the time to take action. Support Canadian entrepreneurs, strengthen our economy, and invest in the future of Canada.

📅 Event Invitation
