What is the federal government offering in terms of wage subsidies for retailers?

The main wage subsidies still available to eligible retailers are the Canada Recovery Hiring Subsidy (CRHP) and wage support under the Hardest-Hit Business Recovery Program (HHBRP) and Local Lockdown Support (LLP).

Wage subsidies under the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS) also remain available for eligible retailers, via retroactive application, for a few months leading up to the CEWS’ program’s last day on October 23, 2021.
