Ontario's Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities is discontinuing the Ontario Self Employment Benefit program in Lambton County.
After more than 20 years, the Sarnia-Lambton Business Development Corporation says that as of Friday, there will be no new applications to the program.
General Manager Don Anderson says they received a very scripted message from the ministry saying due to the province's financial circumstances, reallocation of funds was necessary.
Clients looking for business start-up assistance can be served by the Sarnia-Lambton Economic Partnership Business Resource Centre at the research park.
