Again, nothing has been taken off the table in terms of our economic response to help households and businesses weather this time of unprecedented difficulty, and again, I hesitate to pass judgment on this particular suggestion in the absence of specific detail.
I do, however, want to acknowledge that it could be a difficult pill for a number of Canadians to swallow if they see the government extending major supports to businesses during a year when a CEO takes a significant bonus that may be extraordinarily large, particularly when that amount doesn't reflect the reality of so many Canadians and the budgets that they're accustomed to working within.
I would reiterate the invitation to my colleague from the Bloc Québécois to pass along any helpful suggestions he may have on how some of these issues can be tackled. We want to ensure that our process not only helps Canadians, but helps Canadians understand how we're trying to target support to people in need. We want the programs that we put forward to inspire a sense of fairness at the same time.
Therefore, to the extent my colleague has helpful suggestions on how we may achieve those ends, please know that you have an open invitation to contact me as you have previously.
