Mr. Chair, I thank my colleague for her question.
The Canada emergency wage subsidy is designed to help employers protect the jobs that Canadians depend on and to rehire employees who have already been laid off. The support applies to employers of all sizes in all sectors, including not-for-profit organizations that have been hard hit by COVID-19.
To date, more than 3.8 million employees across the country are being supported by the wage subsidy. It is a good program.
