Story

The Chamber of Commerce is not a department of any government, and it is not a charitable organization. Its function is to unite the efforts of business and professionals to ensure a strong economic and socio-economic climate. It can harness the tremendous potential of the private enterprise system and its membership to accomplish collectively what no one person or business could accomplish individually.

The Chamber of Commerce is People! There is a place in the Chamber for all members to get involved and accomplish collectively what no one of them could do alone, and thereby creating a pool of resources from which to draw ideas, energies and finance.

The Weyburn Chamber of Commerce is the united voice of business, and as such, is a strong voice in government. We have open communication with all three levels of government (Civic, Provincial, and National). The Chamber can lobby with a voice much stronger than that of any one individual or business. Your Chamber Board meets annually with Weyburn City Council to discuss development, tax policy and many more civic issues.

The Board also meets regularly with our MLA, so that our message is heard in the Provincial Legislature on such issues as infrastructure, taxation, and business incentives.

Chamber Board members also meet with our MP regularly to ensure that Ottawa does not forget about Weyburn and our contributions to this great nation.

It is through this network that the Chamber is able to take your concerns directly to those who affect policy change.

The Weyburn & District Chamber of Commerce has Memberships in, and meets regularly with, both the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. The Chambers are then able to share concerns and issues throughout the Chamber network.
