Video summarizes financial support available to Canadians (more details for BC) as of March 26, 2020 during these Covid-19 times. Note: as situation changes and our government adapts to new forms of support, the information provided might not be relevant or changed, but for now, I certainly do hope this helps.

Stay Strong, Remain Calm and I look forward to better days for us all :)
