Small Business Every Day campaign launches, challenging Canadians to support small business recovery. 

Almost half of Canadians know a business that has closed permanently due to COVID-19. As reopening is happening across the country, seven out of ten business owners are worried customers won’t come back. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) has launched the Small Business Every Day campaign to emphasize that customers are critical to local business survival.

At www.SmallBusinessEveryDay.ca consumers will find a series of doable challenges like walking to a local business and buying a treat for a neighbour. The website will also promote the many other Canadian campaigns that have been launched to support local businesses and has tools for business owners such as free posters they can use to thank customers for doing their part.
