    new business idea?

    hey guys i live in Canada and im considering entering a business plan contest. What i want to know has anyone seen a popular product or service wherever you live that is really popular and prolly not in Canada yet.

    or has anyone ever just had an intresting idea for business and wants to share it? (it has to be legal)

    I'm not that hard to imitate. Just make some random negative claim at Apple or anything else for that matter and then have nothing to back it up.

    Check the TC's as most contests like this have some sort of claim to your business idea if you submit to them... I wouldn't want someone else getting rich off my idea!

    I dare say, we all have. Obviously, none of them were worth a fart, or we wouldn't all be spending Tuesday morning in the CL.

    Er, so you want us to give you an idea for you to submit so you can win a contest of some sort. Um, how about not?

    what im asking is ideas that on popular around the world that may b applicable to Canada. This is a bad example but in last years contest someone tried to bring the beligian waffle to Canada, and sell them on the street. They were laughed at thou
