Negative Balance

This week on Negative Balance, we're joined by Josue Sulubika, Communications Director of the Business and Society Student Association. Josue and I talk about the role businesses have played during the pandemic of COVID-19. We discuss on the lack of resources/financial support small businesses receive to continue their operations, to the corporations who are using this situation to thrive through the e-commerce technique. What initiatives need to be address towards Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mayor Doug Ford?
