If you’ve followed us in the past year you know we’ve been vocal on the federal government’s misuse of funds when it comes to the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS). It is no secret that big profitable Canadian and foreign companies have accessed this benefit when they did not need to, but what we still don’t know is the total amount. Follow our journey as we uncover how much these companies received and why the government is adamant about guarding the information. Special guest MP Peter Julian also sheds some light on the CEWS.

Canadians have been anxious to see what would be included in the 2021 Federal budget. There has been no shortage of opinions, positive or negative. At the end of the day, the budget tabled on April 19th, 2021 will become the basis of the Liberal Party’s election platform, which will no doubt be announced later this year.

Creative BC is a staple in British Columbia for providing ample support for the arts community, which in turn benefits the community and economy. However, no matter how essential an organization is to the Province, it should always be held accountable for how funds are spent. We did a little digging on the recipients of Amplify BC. Watch to see what we found out.
