On November 1, Restaurants Canada partnered with the Association des Restaurateurs du Québec to hold its annual reception for influencers. Held at the prestigious library of the National Assembly in Québec City, it put restaurateurs, industry advocates and Quebec provincial politicians in the same room to chat informally about our industry. Our goal was to work on behalf of our members to relay information and make sure our messages are well understood by elected officials in Quebec.
As Québec moves forward with updating its alcohol license regulations, and with preoccupations on recent labour shortage, this year’s event was timely for good engagement and successful participation, with more than 70 people in attendance at the event.
