To the almost 40K small businesses who let us speak for you these past few months, it has been an honour. Save Small Business is ending our campaign today. We leave with some advice for government and a message: You have to do better. A lot better.

As true in Canada as the U.S.: “The pandemic will mean the triumph of franchise chains over mom-and-pop shops...It will mean town centers filled with banks and 24-hour pharmacies rather than bookstores and nail salons and takeout counters.” Total disaster. link.medium.com/ff0ycG8hi6

Re-opening will be the "big lie" of saving local community businesses. It won't be nearly enough. "Politicians can't just ‘pivot’ to recovery, they have to keep their focus on saving businesses while planning the slow reopening of the economy." #canpoli retail-insider.com/retail-in…

I’m sure a few landlords will refuse to opt in, which is an extremely bad decision. All I can say is landlords who don’t participate in this....are real dicks. (Even my most dickish one has agreed)
Sooo I’m being devils advocate because it needs to be asked. What happens if the landlord of your small business refuses to participate in CECRA? @fordnation @JustinTrudeau @telfordk
Have you heard anything like this @TheBlackHoof

Let me get this straight, Ontario's small garden centres/nurseries can now offer curbside pickup & delivery only, but Costco garden centres are wide open to customers? This unlevel playing field needs to end.

May 1st today. Most tenants can't pay their rent and have no relief in place despite the CECRA announcement.

A super important point Diane. Provinces have been very slow to offer eviction protection. This needs to change.

I did a new Podcast! I want to smash the cultural taboo that insists it's impolite to talk about money by having real & raw conversations about money. First up, @amandabella of @the_workaround who opens up about the fight of her life to save her business.

Why would commercial landlords threaten eviction, you ask? @JustinTrudeau medium.com/@jonshell/why-a-c… – at Toronto, Ontario
Sarah LeMay retweeted
We confirmed with the federal government - ALL landlords qualify for CECRA. Ignore this working from the press release: "mortgaged property owner." It does NOT mean only landlords with mortgages qualify. Sloppy wording.

Now we need a commercial evictions moratorium to make sure landlords come to the table.

After today’s rent relief announcement I actually believe (instead of just blindly believe) we have a fighting chance. Thank you @JustinTrudeau @telfordk @fordnation

Really it’s been crickets from @fordnation on commercial rents. I’m not worried about the Starbucks of the world they’ll be fine.

Imagine negotiating for a higher salary at work. But, if you don't like the result and want to leave, instead of finding a new job you need to find a new career, your boss gets your furniture and you pay the recruiting fees to replace you. That's what small biz owners face. 2/10

Whenever I say we need a moratorium on commercial evictions, I hear "why would the landlord want to evict? Who are they going to rent to?" This thread and this blog explains why this logical-sounding argument doesn't make sense in the real world. 1/10 link.medium.com/X9T6MLkYT5
