CERS - Expansion to Lockdown Support for Owners with Non-Arm's Length Tenants

On February 26, 2021 the CRA website was updated to provide commentary on additional lockdown support availability for eligible property owners with tenants not at arm’s length. It notes:

The lockdown support portion of the CERS may be available to eligible property owners, if:

  • their tenant is not at arm’s length

  • the tenant uses the qualifying property in the course of its regular activities

  • that property is subject to a lockdown

  • the tenant must shut their doors or significantly restrict their activities under a public health order, and

  • the property owner meets all other applicable conditions required to qualify for lockdown support
