CHISHOLM â Craig Roberts has worked for 30 years as a handyman, and as a self-employed contractor he said he never thought heâd ever be out of work.
âThings might slow down every now and then, but never for more than a week or two,â he said. âNothing like this.â
Roberts is one of many individuals across the nation whose livelihood has been uniquely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. His work was not up-ended due to government mandates or a lack of demand but rather the heightened safety concerns due to the pandemic.
âPeople donât really want anyone coming in and out of their houses right now,â Roberts pointed out.
