The CERS was implemented by the federal government to support eligible businesses, charitable organizations, and non-profit organizations during the pandemic.
The subsidy can cover up to 65% of eligible expenses and can be combined with an additional rent subsidy of 25%: the Lockdown Support. The hardest hit businesses will have access to a rent subsidy rate of up to 90%.
The two aid measures will be available until June 2020.
