Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to thank the guests for being with us this afternoon.
I also want to touch on what Ms. Hoeppner said about the two-week period. When we spoke with her, we were comparing as well. As we all know, if you're a full-time worker or you're on salary, you don't get a cheque every day or every week; you get a cheque every two weeks. She kind of compared that situation to this, that the two weeks would be much like getting your cheque. If you applied for your unemployment right away, then you would wait two weeks, as if you had been getting your cheque. That's what she compared it to.
For that reason, she felt the five weeks at the end was better. And it does make sense. Even if you were working, you would only get your cheque every two weeks.
That's where she was coming from.
