Canadian Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance (CECRA) Applications Now Open

Écrit par

Équipe fédérale

Today, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that the application process for the Canadian Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance (CECRA) is now open.

The program, delivered in partnership with provincial and territorial governments, will provide forgivable loans to landlords of 50% of monthly rent, with the expectation that landlords and tenants will each contribute 25%. The program applies to April and May (retroactive), and June rent.

CECRA is available for small businesses paying less than $50,000 per month in gross rent, with annual consolidated revenues of less than $2 million, and that have experienced at least a 70% drop in pre-COVID-19 revenues. Non-profit and charitable organizations are also eligible for CECRA.

Applications must be made through eligible property owners, not through the tenants.

To apply, visit the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) website.

The government released the following schedule for applications:

Monday, May 25: Property owners in Atlantic Canada, British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec, with up to 10 tenants who are eligible for the program.
Tuesday, May 26: Property owners in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Ontario, and the Territories, with up to 10 tenants who are eligible for the program.
Wednesday, May 27: All other property owners in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Ontario, and the Territories.
Thursday, May 28: All other property owners in Atlantic Canada, British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec.
Friday, May 29: All property owners across Canada.

Le premier ministre Doug Ford remanie son conseil des ministres avant une importante session parlementaire d'automne

Le remaniement ministériel d’aujourd’hui ne se limite pas à combler des postes vacants ou à redistribuer des responsabilités. Bien que certains changements aient été motivés par des départs du Conseil des ministres au cours de l’été, notamment ceux de Caroline Mulroney, Stan Cho et Neil Lumsden, un remaniement ministériel demeure, en fin de compte, un exercice de priorisation politique et stratégique.
