Up till the libs fibbed small business has always been the driver of new employment... now it is as limp as most fags at a toronto parade with chow

That chart is gay clickbait. 938k to 935k in 14 mos? That's a statistical fart in the wind. Call me after 2-5 more years of decline, or it gets to 900k. (not saying it's not possible...)

Always remember, these content creators have to have something to say every day, something that will get them clicks.
 
Recent data shows negative net business creation (more exits than entries) for multiple quarters in 2024–2025—the longest streak in recent non-scamdemic history. Entry rates are at low levels, concentrated gains in sectors like health/education, and declines in retail, transportation, etc. cfib-fcei.ca

Insolvencies spiked earlier but have eased somewhat. This long ongoing stagnation aligns with reports of:
  • High costs (regulation, taxes, interest rates).
  • Weak productivity growth.
  • Challenges for small businesses (optimism dips, hiring/labor issues).

In summary: A minor net drop like this might be considered normal noise and not "serious" by itself. However, combined with flat/declining per-capita entrepreneurship, sustained negative net creation, and sector-specific pressures, it points to underlying weaknesses in Canada's business environment that has become extremely problematic and has been long unaddressed (e.g., slower innovation, job creation lags relative to population) which those paying attention are well aware of.
 
Because we all know statistics are reliable.

How many business/franchise have become Indian owned in the past 10 years? It seems like half of my small little town is run by Indians.
