Sustainable Hospitality In the evolving world of hospitality, it’s incredibly easy to lose sight of what truly matters. More and more, I’m seeing operators filtering the business of hospitality through financial framework…

Hospitality, and by extension the hospitality industry, is about people. It is about warm welcomes, caring, and connections— all intrinsically human qualities.

Trudeau: "They're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin- a lying, murderous, dictator. Make that make sense. Canadians are reasonable and we are polite.
