In Canada’s secondary markets like Edmonton and Québec City, the digital business segments that are really catching fire right now are local digital service platforms and e‑commerce‑related businesses think online marketplaces, digital directories/review platforms and niche listing sites that help small regional businesses get found online (which are growing fast as local firms go digital). Underneath that, the broader e‑commerce and digital transformation space (especially cloud services, AI‑enabled tools, payment integrations and managed IT or marketing services) is also expanding strongly as companies adopt online sales and automation even outside of major hubs, giving small digital agencies and SaaS‑type listings real momentum.
