WATCH | Hiring subsidy leaves out newer businesses, CFIB says:Hiring subsidy leaves out newer businesses, CFIB says Politics News 1:56 Dan Kelly, president of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, says the new hiring subsidy will help employers that qualify but will leave out too many new businesses. He said they'd hoped to hire them back with the hiring subsidy, but both individuals have started looking for other work. When asked, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland's office didn't say if the government would make eligibility for the hiring subsidy more flexible. "We will continue to be there for Canadians and small businesses," said Freeland's press secretary Katherine Cuplinskas in an emailed statement. As it stands, the new hiring subsidy program will run until November.
