Governments of Canada, Northwest Territories and Yellowknife Launch BizPaL Service
Free online business permit and licence service saves time, cuts red tape and helps entrepreneurs
(firmenpresse) - YELLOWKNIFE, NORTHWEST TERRITORIES -- (Marketwired) -- 10/17/16 -- Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada
Starting and running a business just became easier for entrepreneurs in communities across the Northwest Territories.
The Honourable Bardish Chagger, Leader of the Government in the House of Commons and Minister of Small Business and Tourism, and the Honourable Wally Schumann, Northwest Territories Minister of Industry, Tourism and Investment, are pleased to announce the launch of BizPaL in the city of Yellowknife. This free online application is a directory of the permits and licences required to start or run a business.
BizPaL saves time for business people searching for information. Entrepreneurs simply select the business activities they plan to undertake, and BizPaL then automatically generates a list of required permits and licences from all levels of government, along with basic information on each. The list also includes links to the various government websites where entrepreneurs can learn more and, in some cases, apply online.
