As a Canadian employer whose business has been affected by COVID-19, you may be eligible for a subsidy of 75% of employee wages for up to 12 weeks, retroactive from March 15, 2020, to June 6, 2020.
This wage subsidy will enable you to re-hire workers previously laid off as a result of COVID-19, help prevent further job losses, and better position you to resume normal operations following the crisis.

Land Owner Transparency Registry
The first-of-its kind in Canada, LOTR is a registry of information about individuals who are deemed to have an indirect interest in land (e.g. through corporations, trusts and partnerships) which will be housed in a searchable, public database.
LOTR is currently scheduled to launch in late Spring 2020 once related legislation has passed. However, the Province’s legislative calendar has been impacted by COVID-19, which may result in delays to LOTR.
