Yes, I'm currently on the French channel, Mr. Chair.
I asked a question about the minimum wage. We know that the minimum wage, at 40 hours a week, amounts to barely over $2,000.

Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My question is for you, Mr. Kassam. You said that the CERB and CESB were adverse incentives and that a $2,000 taxable benefit should have been provided instead.
Based on your analysis, should the federal minimum wage rate be higher in order to provide better benefits?

Thank you for the question. It came across much better, so thank you to the IT folks as well.
The question of minimum wage, of course, has many sides to it. I think in this particular case it may have made some difference. The higher minimum wage, I think at the margin, would have made some difference. How much, I do not know. I'm not an expert on that subject. Through our community, in speaking with several accountants and other business people, I did hear instances where they had trouble finding workers for the summer because of this reason, so that's what my comments were focusing on.
I hope that helps somewhat.

Thank you.
I'd like to come back to the new programs announced for students, including the Canada student emergency benefit. I don't know if you have heard the comments about the new jobs being announced in certain sectors of the economy.
While helping students is beneficial, how will we reconcile this new aid with student employment needs?
In other words, given the programs in place, will students still be attracted to minimum wage jobs? Won't we do the opposite of what we wanted to do?

We worked closely with student organizations to develop these measures. They asked us for assistance, not only in the form of a benefit, but also as loans and grants. They asked us to create employment and volunteer opportunities because young people want to work and serve their communities. That's why we made a number of announcements yesterday about all of these measures.
So it is not just about the benefit. If it were, what you are saying could turn out to be true. However, people have asked us to create these opportunities and these jobs, because they want this experience, and if they cannot work, they want to serve their community. That is why we established the Canada student service grant.
Those who have volunteered for a certain number of hours over the summer will be eligible to receive a Government of Canada grant of $1,000, $3,000 or $5,000 at the end of the summer.
