If you or your business has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, you will likely be aware of some of the major economic benefit programs established by the Federal government, including the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB), Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS), and Canada Emergency Business Account (CEBA).
