“The people of Ottawa deserve delicious donuts! ”
“ Being involved in the community is something I always try to do. I have been fortunate enough to be part of the OC Express basketball team & at times the Ottawa Police Hoopstars. Both of these programs were created to bring the community together through Basketball.”
“The staff is the heart and soul of our café. Each person contributes to their very best because they care, they are part of the family, they are part of this community. Two of our 3 partners live in Hintonburg because they have fallen in LOVE with the community. Our philosophy is very simple, having a positive impact, in the community that we serve, will leave a legacy that is greater than the size of our foot print. As a result, we sit on the Wellington West Business Improvement Area (BIA) Board and contribute to the local business advocacy initiatives. We often collaborate with various local businesses and community organizations. We are not merely selling products, we have become a home to so many families that come and stay because they enjoy the experience, the staff and the food.”
“ The core idea behind PROCARE was a centre that's inclusive, educational, FUN, safe, vibrant and supportive for children to blossom into their individual beings all while learning through a play base program. “
“Watching Goldsmithing for the first time was my light-bulb moment. I knew it was something that came naturally and I would love doing. “
“I was first bitten by the “entrepreneur bug” in my 20's when I saw good friends take the leap and work for themselves. It was then that I got the itch or inkling that I could be a business owner! I am very particular about how things should be done, so it's best that I can just create the environment and level of service I want people to experience. The details matter.”
“From the get go we have been an open and inclusive space. We are always delighted in sharing the rich history of the building. Many people we've met over the years attended church, got married, and celebrated all sorts of occasions here, and it was important for us to continue the tradition of having this building serve as a space of celebration and community. “ Leanne Moussa
“All of us were reaching the 15-16 year mark in the business and it was becoming clear that we needed a challenge, we were ready to grow professionally. It was important to create a salon where we could bring our shared values to life, with our skills and hard work. The three of us wanted the same positive change, so we decided to take the leap together.”
“We are blessed to have very loyal customers. When we started in 2006, we were pleasantly surprised with the number of patrons that had been loyal for decades. Many shared stories of how they have been clients for 50 years and continue to this day.”
“ I enjoy the fresh pizzas and outdoor atmosphere of Il Vicolo (it translates to Ally, which is where it is tucked away and easy to miss, on Clarence, near Dalhousie). The wood oven is outside and super-fast. The ingredients are fresh and they have yummy drinks! “
“ Backcountry Wok started from our desire to create better tasting and less wasteful dehydrated meals for camping. It is really important to me for our meals to be as sustainable and local as possible. That’s why we source all our produce from local producers here in Ontario. We prep and dehydrate all the ingredients in-house. “
“ Many of my patients have been coming to see me for 10-15 years. I see my role as someone who is there to inform, guide and educate. I am there to listen, advise and to help them ultimately look their best version of themselves. “
“We believe that our work should improve lives and create opportunities. Our ideal clientele are businesses that have a clear sense of purpose, and not for profits that are the faces of change in our community.”
“We take pride that we’ve always butchered our meat on-site, which allows us to quality control what is coming in, and what we’re putting out.”
“My favourite part of the job is probably recipe development. It's fun to wake up in the morning and think about the type of beer you want to drink that day, then build a recipe and make it come to fruition.”
“It is a lot of work. It helps that we each take a lead in a specific store. Working in any partnership requires respect, communication and a shared set of core values. “
“I’ve always enjoyed building and creating, and I think I’ve always been a leader. “
“Personally, I was getting burnt out with traditional practice and needed a change. It took some time and some soul-searching to figure what type of change was right for me, but mobile practice seemed to offer so much of what I was looking for that, in the end, I couldn't resist.”
“ I’m an author of children’s books but I’m also a father to two young sons that my wife and I adopted in 2013. Our bond as a forever family was formed over our mutual love of reading books and storytelling. I knew I wanted to tell stories after I won a storytelling contest in grade one telling Robert Munsch’s “Mortimer”.
