We are all on the same team: the impact of COVID-19 on small businesses in Canada

摘要

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed my life and the lives of many others who work for small local businesses. This photograph highlights some of the effects that COVID-19 has had on myself and my colleagues as small business employees on Broadway Avenue in Saskatoon, SK, and as people concerned about their personal health during this pandemic. I have felt firsthand how small businesses have been devastated by COVID-19. During this time, it is difficult to balance financial security with personal health. However, wearing a mask can help protect people and reduce the spread of the virus, thus allowing businesses to continue to function.
