HOTELS ARE POISED FOR INCREDIBLE GROWTH, HELP US UNLOCK IT.
HOTELS ARE THE BACKBONE OF THE CANADIAN TOURISM INDUSTRY AND OPERATE IN EVERY RIDING IN THE COUNTRY.
Hotels are a vital economic driver, generating tax revenue at the municipal, provincial, and federal levels. Hotels in Canada generate $18 billion in revenue to Canada’s economy every year and employ 163,000 Canadians in communities across the nation. The hotel industry— even those under international brands—consists primarily of small and medium-sized businesses, many of them family-owned and operated, and deeply rooted in local communities.
Our industry’s growth outlook is positive, but economic uncertainty due to tensions with the US will pose challenges. Strategic federal support will allow our industry to overcome future challenges and capitalize on emerging opportunities.
