If I asked you what your personal values are, the chances are that you would struggle to find the answer. You would not be alone; in fact the majority of people would find it hard to answer this question satisfactorily.The reality is that most of us are not fully aware of our own personal values.

Many people are often confused when examining all of the different types of businesses there are to choose from. Let me give you a few examples.First we have the traditional "mom and pop" type businesses. These are generally the smaller retail type of businesses that you find on the street. The sad part is that most of these businesses fail in 5 years. The reasons are often due to poor management in one or more of the areas that make up the business. Examples are accounting, management, advertising and purchasing.Another type of business with a higher success rate attach There will be Arts & Crafts booths from the different Caribbean islands set up around the area with tasty Caribbean food on sale throughout the day.

On either side of the parade route on Caribana Day, authorized vendors sell different types of Caribbean cuisine including Pelau (Peas & Rice), Jerk Chicken, Bake & Shark (sandwiches) and traditional drinks including Sorrel and Mauby (a drink made from the bitter bark of a tree and sweetened with lots of sugar). 7. Please give us an idea of the sponsors who make this big event happen. The sponsors vary from year to year. This year the list includes The City of Toronto, CTV News, The Toronto Star, Yorkgate Mall, British West Indian Airways (BWIA), The Caribbean Camera and Breyers. 8. Roughly how many people visit Caribana and what economic impact does it have on Toronto? CARIBANA™ attracts according to research estimates from DECIMA (1990) nearly one million spectators to the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), generating, according to figures compiled and released by the City of Toronto, $400 million annually for the Toronto economy. 9. What is the cost of attending Caribana? What events require tickets, how much are they and where can I obtain tickets? Some events require the purchase of tickets, while others don’t. For instance the CCC/Yorkgate Mall Children’s Parade which takes place on July 16, is FREE. So too is the Parade Day. However, if on Caribana Day (the parade day), you wish to sit in the stadium on the CNE Grounds that requires the purchase of a ticket. Different events carry different admission fees. You will be able to get specific information about the admission prices for the official Caribana events by visiting the website: www.caribana.ca. Thank you for giving us a preview of this colourful, exciting festival and I look forward to a great party.
