Mr. Speaker, today I am presenting a petition focused on the government's subsidy programs to support commercial businesses.
The petitioners are concerned about the rules that exclude non-arm's-length holders who conduct their business in a 100% arm's-length manner. These businesses are in the tourism industry and they have been particularly hard hit by COVID-19.
The petitioners call on the government to listen to their concerns and consider reviewing the rules around the commercial rent subsidy program.
