Some Canadians have received double the expected monthly payments from the new Canada Emergency Response Benefit, but federal officials say the multi-billion dollar aid program is working properly.
The Canada Emergency Response Benefit, or CERB, offers $2,000 per month for up to four months for every Canadian who lost income due to COVID-19. Applications opened up this week, and in the first two days alone, the government received more than 1.7 million applications.
But some Canadians who’ve already received the money have reported irregularities, including direct deposits of $4,000 — double the monthly amount.
According to Treasury Board President Jean-Yves Duclos, that’s because those recipients are being paid retroactively for the four-week period dating back to March 15, the first day the benefit can be applied, as well as the upcoming four-week period, beginning April 11.
Duclos said Canadians should be aware of the double payment and budget accordingly.
“Everyone needs to manage his or her budget on the understanding that it’s $2,000 per month regardless of when that $2,000 is actually deposited in his or her bank account,” he said at a press conference on Wednesday.
Canada has more resources than the USA so the bankers are prepared to give us more credit. Although I do not qualify for this payment, the people I know that do are starting to invest in my business, as well as making up their own business models.
Soon half the stuff you buy will be made in Canada, rather than the CCpee. Americans better start making stuff, right there in your basements…
