COVID-19 wage subsidy program extended through August. Trudeau also said the government is reconsidering the 30 percent revenue decline threshold.

Finance Minister Bill Morneau also announced expansions to the eligibility criteria, aimed at helping get more people back on the job, including those who work for private schools and for sports associations.
Changes to the regulations include extending the eligibility to:

-Partnerships that are up to 50-per-cent owned by non-eligible members;
-Indigenous government-owned corporations that have a business;
-Registered Canadian amateur athletic associations;
-Registered journalism organizations; and
-Non-public colleges and schools such as arts, language, driving and flight schools.
