Federal Tourism Minister coming to the North Okanagan
Federal Tourism Minister Mélanie Joly will make a stop in the North Okanagan next week to speak with rural tourism operators.
Joly will talk about the future of the tourism industry and the federal tourism strategy at a chamber breakfast on May 23 in Armstrong.
“We are excited that Minister Joly is visiting the North Okanagan and is taking time to meet directly with tourism operators to learn about their success stories but also what challenges they face as businesses,” said Patti Noonan, executive director of the Armstrong Spallumcheen Chamber of Commerce.
“Tourism contributes significantly to the economic health of the North Okanagan, and it will be important to hear from Minister Joly about federal programs that can assist our members with key issues such as accessing labour and marketing themselves,” she added.
