Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Madam Minister and other witnesses, for joining our committee meeting today.
I want to start by saying thank you for the incredible work that all the folks at the CRA have done to get these benefits out. The numbers are truly astounding. The feedback that I've heard is that the process has been fairly simple. I know that even with the wage subsidy, businesses in my riding are already receiving that in their bank accounts.
Minister, given that these benefits are being disbursed very quickly and given that you mentioned that ensuring the sanctity of these programs and ensuring they're not abused is going to be done after the fact, I was hoping you could explain how exactly the government intends to handle fraud related to the emergency response benefit.
