Manitoba Bridge Grant Program reopened for retailers who missed deadline

The provincial government is reopening the $5,000 Manitoba Bridge Grant program to new applicants who missed applying this spring, as well as seasonal businesses impacted by public health restrictions. Retail stores forced to close to the public (other than for curbside or online services) during the 2020 holiday season are eligible to apply for the program, as long as they have not previously submitted an application. The new deadline for applications is July 16, 2021.
