“The government supports workers, which is why we created the work-sharing program. The department is looking at other ways to help workers and the industry, but I do not have the details right now.”
“Mr. Speaker, I think the government has clearly demonstrated an interest in supporting the workers. That is one of the reasons why we developed the work-sharing program. With respect to other ways we can support workers, I am sure the department has been looking at whatever options might be there. I do not have the details with me right now, but I am sure they would be viable and ultimately assist the industry. I would remind the member that I believe there is a work-sharing program. I do not know the exact design of it.”
