‘Businesses and governments are completely different entities and have distinct goals’

With the municipal election just around the corner and some people and candidates claiming that council needs to be made up with people who have a business background, I wish to take a moment to debunk this myth.Individual businesses have much narrower foci then governments. They deal in transactions that involve the profit-making of a particular person or industry within a distinct market.

More simply, businesses operate in a specific market in order to maximize the profits for owners and/or shareholders. Period. Governments are structured to offer sets of essential services to all citizens in as fair a manner as possible. They do so by collecting taxes and various user fees that are used to fund the services offered. They are also major employers of public servants, most of whom belong to unions or associations that work under the conditions found in negotiated collective agreements.

In addition, there are different contexts under which business and government operate. For instance, municipal governments are mandated by provinces to offer and pay for specific services. They have no choice but to offer such services.It follows then, that the skills necessary to be successful businessperson or CEO do not necessarily dovetail with those needed to sit on council as a councillor or mayor.

Business Council of Canada says Nexus closure 'deeply troubling' in letter to U.S.Business Council of Canada CEO Goldy Hyder says it is ‘deeply troubling’ that the U.S. government has not reopened 13 Nexus enrolment centres, in a letter to David Cohen, the American ambassador to Canada, obtained by The Canadian Press. Tell them to grow up and create an identity. It’s never too late. Maybe Canada should kiss American ass harder and join more US wars If Canadians want Nexus and easy access to the US, then give them what they want. If you tell then to go screw themselves, then they will say the same.
