386 – Ontario Debt Experts Discuss What's Happening Right Now

For the first time ever on Debt Free in 30, we've gathered some of our Licensed Insolvency Trustees from across Ontario to share what they're seeing on the ground. How has the pandemic impacted indebted individuals? Has the vaccine mandate affected jobs and income? How is Canada Revenue Agency handling consumer proposals? All these questions answered and more, with insights from our Barrie, Mississauga, Oshawa, Cambridge/Brantford, Scarborough/Markham, Windsor, Kanata/Ottawa, and London area experts. Tune in for a great discussion.
