You likely have heard enough about the programs available for support throughout COVID, but there has been a positive change to the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy that you many not be aware of. For Period 5 (July 5-August 1st) and beyond (until Dec. 2020), if you lower than last year's numbers you qualify for a partial wage subsidy. No longer do you have to be down 30% to qualify.

It is worth checking out the changes to the program to see if your business qualifies.  Here is a link to the Government webpage:
