Citizenship and Immigration committee Thank you, Madam Chair, for the question. In the COVID context, we are triaging how we are looking at the work permit application, starting, obviously, with health and other essential services.

Citizenship and Immigration committee Yes. I think it would be helpful to know if there were particular benefits that Ms. Kwan was concerned about. The CERB has obviously been the focal point, and a few other benefits that Minister Qualtrough has—

Marian Campbell Jarvis
Agriculture committee Thank you for the question. Perhaps I'll just speak a little about the educational aspects.

Agriculture committee Mr. Chair, if it pleases the member, my colleague from the ESDC would have been able to add more details to the previous question. We could add to that in a moment.
