Our MP Niki Ashton’s latest MP report stated that the pandemic has had a negative impact on small businesses in Canada.

Ashton is urging the Government to make the eligibility for the new assistance plan retroactive so that small businesses owners get the help they need should they have to close.

Ashton stated in her report that a majority of small businesses did not get any help from the original program and is urging the government to act to help small businesses during the pandemic.
