Excellent. Thank you so much to everyone who has joined us today and for your testimony. It's clear that there is going to be a serious and unprecedented impact on the tourism sector as a result of this pandemic.
Thank you, as well, for your kind acknowledgement of the work that's been advanced from, frankly, all parties and by the government. I must say that a large part of it is owing to the public servants, who've been working so diligently over the past number of weeks to get this in order.
I also appreciate the feedback you've sent. I think I've heard the word “liquidity” more in the past hour and a half of my life than in the rest of it combined, so message heard.
I have two questions I'd like to explore. The first is for our guest from the Northwest Territories, Ms. Bolstad. You mentioned in particular—I think it was alluded to by one of our guests from Quebec as well—that one issue you would like to see rectified is the application of the wage subsidy to seasonal workers. I think the issue you've described is essentially the mismatch between the time of year when seasonal businesses have a heavy labour demand and the time of year when they may be able to demonstrate a decrease in revenue. Do I understand you correctly that, because the revenue loss may not be showing itself until a later time, seasonal employers won't be able to access the wage subsidy right now, for example, when they have people preparing for the tourism season?
