Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Before I ask my first question, I have a message for all of the departmental representatives who are here. Earlier, I asked the Minister of Middle Class Prosperity a question about the supplemental employment insurance benefit. I spoke to the Minister of Finance about it and I spoke about it in the House. The President of the Treasury Board is the one who responded to me. I implore you, from the bottom of my heart, to try to find a solution to an unfair situation. Workers are receiving a supplement from the employer and they are forced to pay back the CERB. Businesses did that in good faith. In my opinion, that is an unwarranted injustice. We are in the midst of a crisis and we cannot let them down. Please continue to look for solutions. Thank you for listening.
I believe my first question is best addressed to the representatives of the Canada Revenue Agency. There is a program to temporarily enhance the old age security and guaranteed income supplement programs. I would like to know when the cheques will be issued. Employees from my office called the Service Canada help line and were told that the cheques would be issued on June 26. Can you confirm whether such is the case?
