Canada Pakistan Affiliated Chamber of Trade (CPACT-NCR) believe that these awards recognize and applaud the contribution that small business owners have made in the National Capital Region, and are the perfect stage for small businesses to stand out and shine with their accomplishments. I am happily surprised and humbled that Broken Keys Publishing had been nominated and received the award of Best Publisher.
John Donne said, "No man is an island entire of itself," and he could not have been more correct. Truth be known, this is not an accomplishment I can solely take credit for.
It is truly my honour and privilege to work with some of Ottawa's best: influencers, radio, TV & media personalities, politicians, social event planners & leaders, editors, journalists, voice talents, photographers, models, graphic technicians, printers, and of course, Ottawa's titanic literary talents and poets themselves, whether up-and-coming or established and influential.
It's time to acknowledge the true stars of this award:
