Really important perspective by Wellington West Business Improvement Area business owner Karla Briones. It *never* made sense two years ago to package COVID "relief" for local merchants in the form of loans, and it's just cruel to expect the hardest hit to pay up now. ottawacitizen.com/business/local…

I believe CEBA repayment terms should be assessed based on year-over-year business growth and/or sector based. Or forgiven for some…but who am I kidding. Small businesses are at risk if the federal government doesn’t show a bit of leniency on repayment. ottawacitizen.com/business/local…
