[REVIEW] Scotiabank’s Path to Impact

I had to opportunity to attend the unveiling of Scotiabank’s Path to Impact this past week, in recognition and celebration of Small Business Week.

The installation is an immersive, maze-like journey you can walk through that’s been created from real-life Canadian stories of small business owners and entrepreneurs. Between the yellow arch of Big Idea and the successful red Impact, Canadians will find themselves often Isolated, being thrown Curveballs, or finding that Doors Keep Closing on them.

Toronto Miles & Points Event

Fellow Toronto-based travel & points blogger Ricky from Prince of Travel (whom we had the pleasure of interviewing) will be putting together the next Toronto Miles & Points Event on Sunday, April 7, 2019 at the Walrus Pub & Beer Hall in Downtown Toronto.

Attending in-person events like these is one of the best ways to pick up on some of the advanced topics within this hobby that are often kept secret, like manufactured spending. In addition, Ricky has mentioned in his post on this event that the focus of his presentation will very much be on these advanced topics, and I’m sure there will also be plenty of discussion in the networking session afterwards.
