Man these numbers are crazy..at least some kids will hopefully get off the couch now to help staff some of businesses were are still supporting.

Canada will not extend existing broad-based COVID-19 support programs for companies and individuals when they expire on Saturday because the economy is recovering well, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said on Thursday.

Instead, Ottawa will introduce more targeted and less expensive measures to help particularly hard-hit sectors such as the tourism industry.

These new programs will cost a total of C$7.9 billion ($6.4 billion) between Oct. 24 and May 7, 2022, compared with the C$289 billion Canada has already spent, Freeland said.

"the economy is recovering well" says Freeland.

It would recover a lot faster if people would get off their a**es and get back to work. There's employers out their that can't get good people.

Lol the employers that are looking for good people can't find them because the GOOD people are already gainfully employed somewhere else. What's left over living off the government dole thinking it's there god Given right and they deserve it, no one would want to employ. I like to refer to them as throwbacks. Might just better throw them back to the refuse pile to fester with the other road apples.

.....and then there's that,too. This CERB or CRB or whatever the hell they're calling it nowadays has quite clearly run it's course and needs to permanently disappear.

It sure was a great way to trial run a UBI (Universal Basic Income) experiment..and it failed. With the CERB active, there are help wanted signs everywhere, restaurants 1/2 open due to not enough staff etc..

If you give people free money they won't work. Duh !!
