Small business is the backbone of our economy. Since the pandemic started last March my office has been hearing from those impacted. That’s why our government has invested so much in supporting small business to get through these times.
Tightened restrictions and shutdowns were put in place to help stop the spread of COVID-19 in Ontario.
Applications for the Ontario Small Business Support Grant opened recently. The grant provides between $10,000 and $20,000 to eligible businesses who have had to restrict their operations due to the provincewide shutdown.
