Hi everyone

Now that WSIB is out of debt… rates are going down (yay). They are doing a webinar to explain… see below

Learn about 2019 premium rates (WSIB technical rate session)

The WSIB is now operating without an unfunded liability. That means for the third year in a row, they will be able to lower premium rates for businesses. Building on a 3.3 per cent reduction to the average premium rate in 2018, the WSIB has announced a 29.8 per cent reduction to the average premium rate for 2019.

Participate in one of three technical rate sessions being offered by WSIB and learn from their Chief Actuary on how 2019 rates were calculated. Note: only November 29th is a webinar!

• November 15, 2018 – Construction (WSIB Head Office, Toronto)
• November 23, 2018 – All Rate Groups (WSIB Head Office, Toronto)
• November 29, 2018 – All Rate Groups (Webinar)

These are public events. Please share this information with customers if you feel it is of interest.

Hi everyone. I haven’t had a chance to go through this in detail – but it was forwarded to me by Christie Buckley (GV35). There is a very fast deadline… and a matching cash amount you have to account for… but have a look.

Hi everyone

I’ll be joining one of the founders of a new group in South Simcoe Startup, Chris Holowatyj to speak at a marketing workshop for entrepreneurs.

Hi everyone

Many of you are aware that Grow Vantage has been offering a joint Hiring and WSIB class in the Fall sessions. This year it will be held on November 13th. If you need a refresher on what WSIB entails, please let me know you are interested in attending. And please remember that inquiries about WSIB should be directed to the Office of the Employer Adviser (not! WSIB itself). The OEA helps employers and does not report information to the WSIB.

Interesting news on WSIB: They have announced that their unfunded liability (aka debt) which was once as high as $14.2 Billion has now been eliminated. They will be coming out with reduced average employer premiums in the New Year (the average is expected to be $1.65 per $100 of payroll…depending on the risk category, of course)… so stay tuned.

This event was brought to my attention – in case anyone is interested (and no, it’s not a Grow Vantage night!)

Below is Lisa’s obituary and notice of a gathering if any of you would like to attend.

It is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of a beautiful soul, Lisa Marie Coulson on the morning of Sunday October 7 at her home and surrounded by family at the age of 47 years. Beloved wife of Don and a loving, fun mother to her pride and joys, sons Jacob and Daniel. Lisa was pre-deceased by her infant children Katy-Leigh and Donald, and had far more than her share of pain in life but that could not ever dull her vibrant, loving and giving nature. Lisa was admired and respected by all who were fortunate enough to know her.

She will be greatly missed by her parents Norman and Diane with sisters Cathy and Debby of Calgary, Alberta. She was loved very much by her sisters and parents-in-law Joyce and Don Coulson, Wendy Coulson Burke with Sandy Coulson Black.

Lisa was an active, dynamic and positive person who had a smile and kindness for anyone and everyone. As a taekwondo black belt and owner of Barrie Taekwondo Club, Lisa together with her family have brought the martial art to hundreds of students over the past 20 years. Lisa was a mountain biker, kayak and canoe camper, fly-fisher, traveler, gardener, dog rescuer and loved her time volunteering at the local Salvation Army mission.

Lisa will be greatly missed by her many co-workers in the Respiratory Therapy department at Southlake Health Center in Newmarket where she was an accomplished and respected member of the team for 15 years.

A Gathering in Memory of Lisa’s Life will take place at the Barrie Taekwondo Club at 1027 Bayfield St North in Barrie on Saturday October 13th. Guests are encouraged to come pay respects to Lisa and her family at any time between 3:30 and 6 pm.Friends are asked to bring any great pictures they have of Lisa for a collection being put together by the family.
Refreshments and food will be provided by the We Unite Ladies Group of Oro.

Memorial donations may be made in Lisa’s name to the Cancer Center at RVH in Barrie.
