Parliament Video: Jenny on Bill C-9: Save Van East's Small Businesses and the PNE

Jenny raises points about Bill C-9 (An Act to amend the Income Tax Act (Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy and Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy):

Jenny Kwan (NDP) Vancouver East, BC

"Madam Speaker, like the member, many small businesses in my riding of Vancouver East are in desperate straits and in need of the commercial rent subsidy. Would the Conservatives support calling for the Liberal government to apply the commercial rent subsidy retroactively so businesses that did not qualify in the earlier program would be able to access the resources and support they desperately need?"
