With the federal budget expected to be tabled on April 19th, now is an important time to raise our collective voices and advocate for the continuation of the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS). The CEWS has played a critical role in helping many associations and non-profit organizations mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on their operations and bottom line.
