CEBA Loan Repayments
Did you take out a Canada Emergency Business Account (CEBA) loan? Downtown London stands alongside partner organizations, such as London’s Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB), in advocating for an extension of the CEBA loan repayment period from the federal government.
If you would like to join this effort, you can sign CFIB’s petition to extend the CEBA repayment period and help small businesses recover from COVID-19 debt.
