Premier Brian Pallister has announced the Manitoba Bridge Grant application deadline has been extended to the end of this month. 

The program offers support to small businesses, charities, not for profits and home based businesses affected by public health orders.

Pallister explains it’s now broadened to include more businesses such as hotels, resorts, lodges and outfitters, travel agencies, janitorial services companies, and owner/operators of licensed passenger transportation businesses.

They’ll be eligible for the five thousand dollr Bridge Grant for this year. Plus if they qualify, they will be eligible retroactively for the previous five thousand.
