Meet Sierra Weatherby, our amazing new admin assistant!

When Sierra isn’t wrangling office logistics you’ll likely find her pitching camp by the ocean, soaking up sun at the beach, or wrangling her three cats and spirited dog.

A born-and-raised Albertan who spent a few years in Ontario, she honed her organizational chops in both veterinary medicine and event management before bringing that precision to the legal world.

Fun Fact: Sierra is proficient in several forms of medieval weaponry.

The conversation behind the commitment...

Last month, we shared that Parr Business Law is donating 1% of profits to the Wirth Foundation to support mental health access.

We wanted to give you a bit more insight on why.

Ben Miller (founder of ) and I sat down to talk about the stories behind Wirth, our own mental health journeys, and what makes therapy such a game-changer, especially in high-stress roles like law and entrepreneurship.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to keep it all together when you were struggling… this one’s for you.

🧠 Let’s keep the conversation going — and keep backing it with action.

Today’s not just a day off. It’s a reminder that Canadian laws are always changing, and if you run a business, that matters.

Here are 3 legal shifts we’re watching this Canada Day:

🔹 Interprovincial Trade Reform (Bill C‑5)
The new “One Canadian Economy Act” is live. Less red tape between provinces = better growth potential if you sell across borders.

🔹 Digital Services Tax Paused
Canada just stepped back from its 3% digital tax. What’s next for Canadian tech, SaaS, and e-commerce? It depends on how U.S. talks go.

🔹 Citizenship Rules Expanding
A new bill will make it easier for children of Canadians abroad to claim citizenship. Good news for global entrepreneurs setting up shop here.

At Parr Business Law, we help business owners make sense of the law, so they can use it, not get blindsided by it.

Big news!

Parr Business Law is partnering with the Wirth Foundation’s WIRTH Hats to support mental health.

We will be donating 1% of our profits annually through our new "1% for Wirth" initiative, helping expand access to mental health services for those who need it but can’t afford it.

We’re launching this during Men’s Mental Health Month, a time to break silence and back it up with action.

PBL took to the courts yesterday for the Ashdown Pickleball Tournament 🏓💼

There were plenty of laughs, a few humbling moments, and lots of great rallies with 80+ professionals from all walks of business.

Ty and Nirusha had never played before… but you wouldn’t know it. Ty was charging the net like a pro within minutes. 👏

Big thanks to Ashdown Capital and everyone we connected with! Great reminder that in business (and on the court), it’s all about showing up, having fun, and staying open to learning something new.

📄 Why one will isn’t enough if you own a business.
⁠
In BC, probate fees can eat up ~1.4% of your estate’s value , and if your company shares are caught in that net, the cost could be tens of thousands.
⁠
That’s where a dual will strategy comes in:

✔️ One will for your personal assets (home, bank accounts, RRSPs)
✔️ One will just for your private company shares
⁠
👉 The corporate will avoids probate entirely, no delay, no court filing, no fees.

We recently helped someone through a time-sensitive estate matter. What stood out to them wasn’t just the legal work, it was how they were treated: like a human, not a number.

This kind of feedback means the world to us. Legal services should be compassionate, responsive, and human.

That’s what we aim to offer, every time.
Thanks for the kind words, and for trusting us with something that really mattered.
