Lib. (ON)
Thank you very much for the question.
I do want to thank the member opposite for his advocacy for Canadian working families and for Canadian workers. I know that it is a very sincere concern.
Let me say a couple of things about the wage subsidy. The wage subsidy can, by very clear and specific design, only be used to pay employees. That money cannot be used for any other purpose. That is very important for Canadians to know, and that's something that the government needs to be very careful about and is very careful about.
The design of the wage subsidy was to encourage as many companies as possible to keep as many Canadians on the payroll as possible. So far, the wage subsidy has kept almost four million Canadians on the job. It has kept them employed. I think that is very important.
