Paid parking sparks investment in perimeter security
Toronto and Calgary introduced paid parking this spring to provide disincentives to using cars, and this is part of a broader green trend. “The best environmental policy is paid parking,” says Vince Mauceri, general manager of transportation operations and technology at Metrolinx, an agency that’s developing integrated transportation strategies for the Toronto and Hamilton regions.

Special topic:
Selling a business in slow times
Selling a business can be a time consuming, grueling process during the best of times. Throw a financial credit crunch and global economic crisis into the equation and it's not a surprise that most security business owners are opting to delay putting up the 'for sale' sign for at least a few more years.

While most financial experts recommend this line of action given the uncertainty of the current market, not everyone has that luxury. The good news is that there are still buyers out there — and they're willing to pay good money for businesses that meet their needs.
