1. Survival and growth of women-owned and immigrant-owned businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic
Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400500006
Description: The pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on the Canadian economy. This impact was uneven across different workers and businesses. However, there is little information available on how businesses were affected by and survived through the pandemic according to the characteristics of their owners, especially those owned by certain groups such as women and immigrants. This article uses a linkage of the monthly business openings and closures with the Canadian Employer-Employee Dynamics Database and the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy to study the survival rate and employment growth of businesses by gender, and immigrant status of owners.

To support businesses affected by the pandemic, the Government of Canada launched various COVID-19 liquidity support programs, including the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS), the Canada Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance (CECRA), the Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy (CERS) and the Canada Emergency Business Account (CEBA).

Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202300300003
Description: In Canada and other advanced economies, the share of zombie firms, defined as businesses that perform poorly over a long period of time without exiting, has been rising over the past few decades. Recent studies have shown that the share of zombie firms in Canada could potentially be the highest in the world. However, these studies for Canada are based only on publicly traded Canadian firms. This paper presents new evidence on zombification using not only publicly traded firms but also Canadian controlled private corporations, which make up a large proportion of businesses in Canada.
