🚨 Just published: My op-ed in @TheHillTimes argues that Canada’s open banking framework will fall short if small businesses are left out of the launch. Small firms drive 50% of GDP and employ 90% of the private workforce. Yet they’re being asked to wait for the very tools that could cut red tape, lower fees, and unlock faster access to credit. With Ottawa’s Aug. 28 budget consultation deadline approaching, this is a pivotal moment. 🔗 hilltimes.com/story/2025/08/… (note: subscription required)
