Thanks @MikeSmythNews for having #CFIB on to talk about the new business restrictions in #BC - lifelines are still needed for #smallbiz, more clarity around support for restaurants and gyms who were forced shut as of midnight is needed. #bcpoli
Port Coquitlam businesses - reach out. We’ve established an “One Stop Shop” Biz Hub to support businesses and our outdoor space/patio program is one call away. No red tape, no fees. Let us help you - and to our residents: let’s have local biz back, shop local, order local.
Greater restrictions means it’s more difficult for #smallbiz to bring workers back & keep them employed, or make enough revenues to keep their doors open/reopen them when restrictions are lifted... additional support is needed to offset the restrictions.
BC has worked hard to keep as many small businesses open as possible during the pandemic. The province has not used a "lockdown forever and forget to reopen" approach like Ontario. But this move is going to hurt many BC small firms.
Metro Vancouver restaurants grappling with news that as of midnight they won't be able to have indoor dining - just take out and patio seating until April 19th. @ChefHawksworth stuck with food he can't sell & staff who won't be able to pay rent. @CKNW

Great to see @CCochrane_NWT launch their #redtape reduction working group! #CFIB looks forward to seeing the Territory advance this important initiative that will make it easier to do business. https://t.co/bnGWrX6obw
Some good news for small businesses today. Wage and rent subsidy formulas will stay the same until June and revenue comparisons can continue to be made to pre-pandemic revenue. But so much more still needed. https://t.co/BSts2bK4ve.
