WOODSTOCK - The Woodstock District Chamber of Commerce has partnered with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce to launch the Canadian Business Resilience Network.

The CBRN is designed to help the business community prepare, persevere and, ultimately, prosper during the COVID-19 pandemic. Led by the Canadian Chamber, it is an inclusive campaign that focuses on mitigating the impact of the pandemic on our economy.

The CBRN aims to:

- Provide tools and supports through a dedicated website, CBRN.ca, to businesses in their business continuity efforts – from development to implementation.
- Provide a consistent and reliable flow of accurate, up-to-date, authoritative information.
- Work closely with government to ensure the right supports are in place and to be a conduit for information from the government to the private sector.
- Instill confidence in Canadian business and the economy.

COO for the Canadian Chamber of Commerce Jackie King says we are going to get through this pandemic together.

"COVID 19 has provided us with an unprecedented challenge, but Canadians are resilient. The Canadian Business Resilience Network is about business and government stepping up together to make sure every Canadian business has the information it needs and a fighting chance to make it through."

CBRN brings together over 450 chambers of commerce and boards of trade, along with over 100 of Canada’s leading business and industry associations, including the Business Council of Canada, the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business, the Canadian Federation of Independent Business and Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters, as well as the support of partners such as Canada Life.
