the TCA also aims to offer programs and
opportunities that provide real immedi-
ate value. Those can take a variety of forms.
For example, the association offers discount
programs. Because of their size, they can of-

“We also offer personal benefits for staff
members of member companies,” Mollen-
hauer adds. “So they can go to a movie in-
expensively, or buy tickets to the Rogers
Cup without paying retail prices. Savings on
Park’N Fly can be as high as 25 per cent. We
have a fairly broad spectrum of opportuni-
ties, some targeted at businesses and some
targeted at employees.”
Even more, the TCA also offers events, con-
ferences, and symposiums – and are creating
more all the time. Just this month, for ex-
ample, they hosted a small business sympo-
sium that was designed to help the owners
of small-to-medium sized enterprises “align
wealth creation with business growth and
development,” thus giving them the tools to
build bigger and more profitable businesses.
