Only 29% of Canada’s Small Businesses Are Back to Full Sales

Six months after the Covid-19 shutdowns, more than two-thirds of Canadian small businesses still haven’t returned to full sales, according to a new report.

Only one in three, or 29%, of small- and medium-sized companies surveyed by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business said they’re back to “normal or better” sales as of Sept. 16. That number is largely unchanged since mid-July.
