Chamber Advocacy to support Credit Unions

We at the Alberni Valley Chamber of Commerce are alongside our BC Chamber Colleagues in a push for Tax Fairness fo any and all of BC's various Credit Unions.

We absolutely must ensure that the Provincial Government hears loud and clear that then must do as ALL other Provinces have done by extending - permanently, the tax credit program aimed at helping local credit unions compete. Without Credit Unions many of the rural and not so rural small businesses would be in significant financial crisis.

Brie and Barrel - Sharie Minions

Brie and Barrel

Brie & Barrel was inspired by a small wine bar in Sidney BC. Owner's Sharie & Colin Minions had a dream to create an elegant restaurant featuring quality wines, local craft beer, and unique flavourful dishes utilizing local ingredients wherever possible.

 

The space was quickly chosen and work began. Since the start, Brie & Barrel has prided itself on an always changing menu to an ever growing wine list featuring the best of local and international small wineries. Brie & Barrel always has something new and exciting to try.

 

With our most recent change, Brie & Barrel is excited to now be home to a beautiful new luxurious covered patio space and a stunning garden section covered in wisteria vines. Each table equipped with it's own personal table-top fire to enhance your dining experience, we are so proud of the space we've created at Brie & Barrel.
