We’ve been speaking with small business owners across Canada, and I want you to know that we are listening.
From your feedback, as a next step in our COVID-19 Economic Response Plan, our Government is helping Canadian businesses protect jobs, and pay their bills by:
– Providing an up to 75% wage subsidy for qualifying employers for up to 3 months;
– Allowing businesses to defer GST/HST payments, and customs duties until the end of June;
– Launching the new Canada Emergency Business Account to help provide interest-free loans to small businesses and not-for-profits.
– And providing SMEs with guaranteed loans to help cover operational costs.
Details to follow.
