Thank you.
My question will be for the Department of Finance. I raised it with the minister as well.
There's a specific example of a company that cannot get access to the CEWS. In April, we raised the idea of having Finance look at using different metrics for revenue calculation.
Specifically, this business receives a flow-through with insurance premiums. It flows through, they make no margin on it, but it keeps the revenues quite high. They really make their money on transactional...when there are claims. They make money off their claims cost, which is a very small portion of revenue. As you can imagine, with doctors' offices closed and the volume of claims going through, it's gone down, but they still have to maintain all their staff because they're able to do this.
Would Finance consider in this case some different form of metric? This is a business that has really been hit hard because of the lack of administrative fees, which are really the real revenue of their business, not the flow-through on the insurance premiums.
