Good Afternoon All, Our colleagues in Greektown are sharing a pop-up vaccine clinic with us - set for Tuesday, May 18th starting at Noon. I know that a number of you have received your first AZ shot when they were available at our pharmacies but for those who weren't able or weren't eligible for that shot this is a good opportunity.

Good Afternoon All, As many of us expected the Province has just announced that the current Stay at Home order will be extended to at least Wednesday, June 2/21. This means that outdoor dining and activities, in-store shopping, salon services and private gatherings will continue to be prohibited. Schools will also continue with on-line learning. At least the Province made this announcement early for once - instead of its usual last minute announcements. To put the current case numbers in…

Good Afternoon Folks, In the past few weeks we've been working on a promotional campaign with TABIA and Berners Bowie Lee (BBL) ad agency.

The message in this campaign is: SMBs are the heartbeat of neighbourhoods. Let's rally people around these beloved businesses. By supporting them,…

Good Afternoon All, I have a few things for you today: Provincial Grant Second Payment We have heard that the Province has started to issue the second payments to those who applied for the Small Business Grant. If you were approved for the first payment then you will automatically receive a second payment which matches the amount of your first payment. As with all of these payments, it may take a couple of weeks to process into your accounts. If…

Good Afternoon All, The Federal Liberals presented their budget this afternoon. I want to share the following information which will be of importance to you, our business members - especially noting the proposed extension of the Wage Subsidy, Rent Subsidy and Lockdown support programs to September 25, 2021. Helping Hard-hit Businesses Hire More Workers Budget 2021 proposes to introduce the new Canada Recovery Hiring Program for eligible employers that continue to experience qualifying declines in revenues relative to before the…
