Thank you for the question.
What I did throughout the COVID pandemic, and what I continued to do throughout the summer, was very much focused on.... Every time there was a government program that was rolling out, my responsibility was to make sure that I was sharing the details of that with provinces and territories ahead of public announcements, to give them a heads-up, to have an exchange about it. There was often follow-up after the fact.
Between the 20th and 23rd, I did a lot of work but I did share it with different departments. On the 22nd, I briefed provinces and territories on the student program announcement, but not in detail on the WE proposal. I thought that perhaps we would need to brief on the WE proposal at some stage, which is why I wanted to stay informed; but in the end, on April 23, ahead of the first ministers' meeting, we did not talk about the WE proposal. Therefore we briefed on the other elements of the first ministers' meeting and not on the WE proposal specifically.
