Doly Begum MPP, Scarborough Southwest

I am hosting a discussion this Monday for for small businesses across Scarborough Southwest who have been closed for over a year and are being forced to shut down permanently due to lack of adequate support during the pandemic. Many of you have reached out about the challenges your businesses have been facing throughout this pandemic, especially how difficult it has been for our local small business owners and entrepreneurs to access the government grants. This is why, I will be hosting a discussion with small business owners and entrepreneurs in our community to hear about the challenges that you have been facing and find ways to provide support and hope for our vibrant small business community.
