Yet, I keep my employees fully paid, didnt lay any of them off... I gave 2 of them a raise during the last shutdown because they are awesome.... I didnt qualify for the rent relief because I was still doing deliveries and collecting "revenue" from products that were sold weeks earlier before the shut down even though my sales from Dec 26 to Mid Feb were basically ZERO... and yup I took 20k but I treated my employees more than fairly, and I didnt get any wage subsidy this last round of shutdown... So easy for the armchair warriors like Mirko to shoot their mouth off -  I know it (Mirko) was referring to me..... Its easy to judge when you are absolutely CLUELESS. 

Im one of those people that actually expanded their business during the pandemic - and spent money on trades, etc.... I was just pointing out how broken the whole govt assistance program is with my 20k comment (drop in the bucket for me)... It costs me over 20k per month to keep it floating before I even sell anything.. But the govt is awesome and im a thief.. LOL !!

That's also not the only one I've heard about either, I'm no rat but this activity will do nothing but hinder us, our kids and their kids for generations. Another scenario I heard from at least 3 different people stating they take everything they can get and then just do cash jobs. For some this has been a cash cow, I personally have been financially unaffected really and havent taken a penny from the government.

gashole wrote: I agree with that statement, but some saying we should open up 100%... no way... Close 100%, but costco and walmart open? No way.. My business got bailout money and my sales are up 40% so far this year over 2020, yes, 40% - even after a second locdown just after Christmas to mid Feb... And I qualified for the $20,000 grant last month because my sales were down 93% last April.. ... shows how stupid our govt systems are.. but yes I took advantge of it, and I wont appologize for it.

Small businesses are a large part of our country. If they didnt shut them down they wouldnt have to bail them out would they? If the zombies can wonder around the dollar store and walmart then they can wonder around every store. Every store that provides jobs to canadians is "essential"

We FAILED.... We saw it coming, but we couldn't stop even ONE case from spreading.

No TESTING, No PROOF,  No RESPONSIBILITY........   Blame it on others.   

 

and now we wait like beggers for handouts for vaccines, We should be in complete lockdown and no more help to small business.  How many more generation will pay for bailing out the small business.
 

 

 

The reason i stated few days ago about small business. They recieve money and then close shop for good,. Here on this board we see the scums that are stealing from Canadians. There are lots of these scums.
 

 

Shut you down without any cause.  Take your head out of you no where  as the reason is very clear .  You are full of it. I am certain you are a tax  cheat and truly scum. I don't feel like pursing to get your personal information and report you to CRA.
