City of Toronto Launches BusinessTO Support Centre
Today, Mayor John Tory announced the launch of the BusinessTO Support Centre as part of the Mayor's Economic Support and Recovery Task Force's short-term action plan. This new resource provides businesses of all kinds with one-on-one guidance, over the phone or through virtual meetings, on how to access the various government support programs available to companies operating in Toronto, including the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy Program, Canada’s Work-Sharing Program, and Canada’s Emergency Business Account Program. Not-for-profits, cultural organizations and consultancies can also access the BusinessTO Support Centre for assistance.
To access the BusinessTO Support Centre or connect with a Business Advisor, visit the City’s website here.
