The Federal Government has announced a proposal to extend certain programs to support those effected by COVID-19, including the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS), the Canada Rent Subsidy (CERS) and the Canada Recovery Benefit (CRB).
Extension of CEWS & CERS
The Government has announced the extension of the eligibility period until October 23, 2021 for the Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy (CERS) and the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS), previously set to expire on September 25, 2021.
Extension of CRB
If approved, we could also see an increase in the number of weeks available by 4, to a total of 54 weeks, at a rate of $300 per week. The CRB would also be available to those who have exhausted their Employment Insurance Benefits.
The Government has also announced the increasing rate of support employers and organizations can receive during the period between Aug. 29 and Sept. 25, 2021.
