Thank you.
One of the big problems for a lot of the seniors who are guaranteed income supplement recipients and who did work, according to the rules of the program to top up their income, is that CERB payments that they received are now being clawed back, effectively, by reducing their guaranteed income supplement. This is also happening to low-income families on the Canada child benefit, who have, likewise, seen their pandemic benefit payments clawed back through the CCB program this year.
I'm wondering if the government has taken any measures in the act to avoid this happening again by stipulating in the legislation, for instance, that Canada worker lockdown benefit income will not be included in the eligibility calculation for income-tested programs, like the guaranteed income supplement and the Canada child benefit.
