Downtown Dartmouth, all together local. *Stats from Canadian Federation of Independent Business*. #Punamukwatijk #DowntownDartmou.

Choose local and help the local economy. Many of the goods sold in downtown Dartmouth are produced locally and your purchases will help our local businesses survive. 66 cents of every dollar spent in a small business stays local*. We can get through this together.

The American tariffs on Canadian goods are going to be devastating for local business. Now is the time to use your purchasing power purposefully.
