Three ways David Eby will help small businesses through the trade war

Unfair U.S. tariffs and the recent wildfires are hitting B.C. businesses hard, and too many are falling through the gaps in federal programs.

1. 1

   Interest-free loans

   A new $500 million relief fund with interest-free loans of up to $1 million, for up to six years, to help small businesses recover from Trump's tariffs or the recent wildfires.

2. 2

   $5,000 to hire a young person

   A $5,000 tax credit for small businesses that give someone aged 18 to 30 their first full-time job, for a full year.

3. 3

   Help to find new markets

   One-on-one advice, market research grants and help finding Canadian suppliers, so businesses can sell beyond the U.S. and buy closer to home.

That's on top of David Eby's plan to cut gas prices by up to 30 cents a litre and give independent grocers a fair shot against the big chains.

The conservative parties have spent this campaign defending big oil and the grocery giants. David Eby and the BC NDP will stand up for small businesses.
