I think the continued support for the tourism industry is essential. We're seeing businesses suffer from not only the lack of visitation from the U.S. market, but from people's pocketbooks being so affected by inflation and rising prices. Businesses are worried about paying back their CEBA loans.
There's a lot of concern and angst right now among our small tourism operators with some of these financial constraints. With what was supposed to be an exciting season that they were looking to welcome, they're a bit fearful right now and hesitant to invest and expand.
There have been great supports. I think the tourism relief fund was a welcomed resource for a lot of these operators, but it was only able to touch so many.
There are those who struggle with technology, as far as applying for those supports. Understanding the technology is really an issue.
