Inspiring stories from outstanding Canadian businesspeople, since 2009.
Monsieur Cocktail took off in the early days of the pandemic when at-home mixology was a popular trend, but then the elixer business was targeted by a sophisticated and costly form of fraud known as the President's Scam. The scam nearly sunk the business but Patrice Plante persevered and pivoted toward B2B. Mike and Dan explore what it took to identify the scam, repair the damage, and get back on track, with the help of Sacha Blasiak-Priestley, Director, Cloud Security for BDO Canada's cybersecurity team; they also discuss whether or not temporary sales tax holidays can stimulate the economy, and signs of optimism in Canadian tech and IPOs, with positive news from Shopify and Dynamite.
