Credit card processing is a cost of doing business. Every company pays it. Passing it on to customers is what happens when there isn’t enough competition.

In a truly competitive market, this doesn’t happen. You try it, your customers walk. Simple as that.

I spent years fighting for competition in telecom and have seen what happens to prices when Canadians actually have a choice.

I’ve never built a team off resumes alone.

No one person in the team is similar, yet the thing they have in common is the authenticity that they bring to the table.

There’s a much bigger change of success when the people doing the work stay curious with an alignment to their own perspective.

All of us get 24 hours a day, out of which we are awake for 15 hours. How do we make the most of it?

I like to invest 10% of that time in personal wellness & health.

We are awake 15 hours. Out of which 1.5 hours should be dedicated to health. The remaining 90% is the return on investment that we get as a result.

A little over a year ago, we acquired WealthONE Bank of Canada. I said then that Canada isn't facing an innovation shortage but a banking oligopoly. We took that as a challenge!

WealthONE is now the fastest-growing Canadian bank and the credit goes to the entire WealthONE team.
