The government of Ontario says it will provide about $11-billion in relief and support to businesses stung by U.S. tariffs.
According to a report from the Globe and Mail, Premier Doug Ford says the measures will help workers and businesses deal with President Trump’s attacks on Ontario’s economy.
The government says businesses will save about 9 Billion dollars as the province defers select provincially administered taxes for six months, starting right away.
It says it will also provide a $2-billion rebate for employers through the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board to help keep workers on the job.
