This summer's bushfires and now the coronavirus outbreak are having a significant impact on businesses around Australia, especially on tourism. The Morrison government is stepping up with a $76 million tourism recovery package, but we can all do something to help. In January 2019, I held my 'Tour de Fisher' campaign, where I rode my pushbike around to every major town in the seat of Fisher. It was a sight, of me in lycra, let me tell you! This week I'm kicking off my local 'Tourism de Fisher' campaign. Every day in March, I'll be using my Facebook page to share the story of one of the fantastic local tourism businesses in Fisher on Queensland's glorious Sunshine Coast. We live in the best country in the world and there's just so much to see and do in our own backyard. So let's support our fellow Australians, holiday on the Sunshine Coast in particular and show some love to people who need it most.
