RE:Federal wage subsidy to be extended to December

RE:Federal wage subsidy to be extended to DecemberNot eligible.  There has to be a 30%+ drop in sales.  FY Mar 28/20 was a 7.9% drop in sales.  Problem is online sales only makes pennies a sale due to shipping cost and a huge increase in online sales replaced a large decrease in brick and mortar retail sales.  Online sales is a money loser because they don't have an efficient inhouse shipping system like Amazon and have to send using third party couriers, yet their retail prices have to compete with Amazon.  Read report under investor relations: "The Company reported revenue of $957.7 million for its fiscal year ended March 28, 2020. This compares with revenue of $1,046.8 million for the same period last year, a decline of 8.5%. Total comparable sales, including both online sales and comparable retail store sales, decreased by 7.9%." https://www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca/investor-relations/financial-news-releases/
