Default The Bob Parkinson story?

My interest is only Bob's moving his business to the USA from Canada. Nothing else.

I have absolutely no interest in reading anything about issues with Bob Parkinson Models. So please, refrain from that.

To be more specific, my interest is the USA's Government program, that actually gave big money to many Canadian business owners to relocate their business here in the USA.

I'm only trying to find out more about the program? Bob told me about this program and how he qualified for it.

My best guess is it was initated in the late 80's till the mid or late 90's? Bob and I had this conversation in 1995.

All information about this program will be appreciated.

Yes, it's inportant.

Thanks in advance.

Charles

Bob Parkinson Models, famous or infamous for the Regal Eagle (an F-15 looking ICDF sport jet). I doubt if he is still in business.

That would have been a long defunct tax break initiative, I believe. Now the whole focus has been the opposite with companies doing the opposite. They are expatriating in droves.

different administrations, different policies, and effects.

Chuck,

The program had nothing to do with a tax brake.

The program was offered to Canadians to pick up their business and bring them to the USA. So I was told.

There were some conditions, much of which wasn't followed.

I need to know the what the program was and when?
