Montreal merchants hit by construction eligible for up to $30K

Businesses that have seen their revenue drop by more than 15 per due to major construction work will be eligible for up to $30,000 a year in compensation, the municipal administration said Wednesday.
The city says it expects a municipal bylaw to be passed in December and that it will be able to start accepting applications for the program in January.
The long-awaited plan to compensate merchants affected by major roadwork will be retroactive to Jan. 1, 2016 for work done by the city of Montreal,
