Maybe I can respond, if that's okay, to the questions related to costing for the Canada recovery sickness benefit. It is in a different situation from the Canada worker lockdown benefit in terms of the estimated costs. For the sickness and caregiving benefits, we are estimating a total of $1.8 billion in benefits to be paid to a total of 890,000 potential individual claimants.
Those are the cost estimates. They are estimates, because it really depends on the intake for the benefit, should it be needed, because of closures of schools and institutions and a rise in COVID cases. For the Canada worker lockdown benefit, it's really important to understand that the costing is directly dependent on the triggering of those benefits in designated regions. Should there be designated lockdown regions where workers would need the benefit, when those situations occur, the cost would then depend on the length and the scope of the lockdown in the community.
As we move forward, we will be in a better position to provide those projections and to report on those costing estimates for the lockdown benefit.
