That's awful. In Canada, most people got their CERB money within a week. It took 2 days if you already had direct deposit info on there. Some people are refusing to go back to work after the relaxed lockdown because the CERB is more than they make working a few shifts a week.
It's a bit frustrating that part-time workers are getting more than if they would work, but I'm happy that everyone is taken care of.
- nmaxcom 7y agoI live in Europe, in a more or less decent country, and thankfully, a fair chunk of us don't have to worry a lot about job security/income. The Canadian move is, unsurprisingly, more forward-thinking than the usual US sleight of hand thing. But I wonder, in these conditions, with minimal incentive to come out, isn't the CERB inflating $CAD?
