Mr. Speaker, we understand that this is an extremely stressful situation for Canadians, particularly post-secondary students.
Many of them would normally be starting a summer job, but they are finding themselves alone, not knowing what will happen in the coming months. We made changes to the Canada summer jobs program, which will create up to 70,000 opportunities for young people. That will help them stay in the labour market in some way and save for their future.
The wage subsidy will also help more employers hire young people. Students who had a job last summer or who worked during the school year are eligible for the CERB if they earned over $5,000. Many students are eligible. However, we recognize that we need to do more for students like Camille, and we will do just that.
