Thank you, Chief Paul, for joining us.
I know you're quite busy, and I can state with confidence that Membertou is one of the fastest-growing areas of economic growth in Cape Breton. I thank you for your leadership in creating a better Cape Breton.
You've shared with us that COVID has had major impacts in all areas of Canada, and I thank you for giving us a sense of the challenges that Mi’kmaq communities are facing. With the estimated loss in own-source revenue from Mi’kmaq communities, do you know whether the communal fisheries are eligible for the programs that the government has announced, like the wage subsidy, or some of the benefits for fish harvesters that we've announced?
