Important Health Information: Coronavirus
As you are aware, the Wuhan Coronavirus has already made an impact in both our professional and personal lives. As of January 31, 2020, 4 cases have been confirmed in Canada: 3 in Ontario and 1 in BC. In our industry and profession, we all work with a diverse clientele who may travel or be in close proximity of those that have recently travelled to the affected areas. We encourage our cherished members to be cautious with hygiene and considerate of those around them. Here is some resource that may help you:
Preventing coronavirus infection/spreading
- wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
- avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands
- cover mouth when sneezing or coughing
- avoid close contact with people who are sick

20 Secrets that the Taxman Doesn’t Want You to Know
The highly anticipated Chinese version of 20 Secrets that the Taxman Doesn’t Want You to Know is now available to order. It will be priced at $24.99 on Amazon and local bookstores, and sold for the same price at the Client Events.
For Way Members only, if you order 2 copies, you can bring your receipt to Accounting Department to claim a $20 sponsorship. That means you can get 2 copies for only $29.99 – one for yourself, one for your client.
If you want to order more, you can still get the $20 sponsorship for every 2 copies.
- Eg. If you order 4, you will get $40 sponsorship, so the total for 4 books is $59.99.
- Eg. If you order 10, you will get $100 sponsorship, so the total for 10 books is $149.95.
This is to encourage you to do more business and build a closer relation with your clients as the book will help you close cases after your clients read it. As you may already know, the English version is a National Best Seller.
The books are scheduled to arrive this month. First come first served.
