This is a common problem with PNP's, this is why I never suggest them as a first option. Tying the success of permanent residency to the success of a business is already a challenge, adding on the top the challenge of doing it in a new country, and now with COVID as another challenge. Since you probably have a representative for your Ontario PNP, I wouldn't intervene, but I strongly recommend looking at the options of the startup visa program, where permanent residency is given regardless of the success of the business. I would advise strong care and due diligence in selecting your immigration professional, because there is a vast array of options available under the startup program, and the success rate varies a lot from one to another. Ask the tough questions to your immigration professional, and see how detailed the answers so you can better assess his qualifications. It's a rather new program and not that many people have developed their expertise yet.
