From the point of clarity, if I'm to understand that correctly, companies that were sitting on significant holdings in cash and liquidity and then paid dividends were qualified and perhaps would not be considered as taking advantage of this program.
Just to cut to the chase, I reference the recommendation at paragraph 7.35: “The Department of Finance...should complete and publish an economic evaluation” of the wage subsidy program.
Madam Chair, through you to Mr. Sabia, given my comments and given the attention on companies such as Air Canada, Imperial Oil and others, as part of the risks and evaluation of the program when it's done to date, will the evaluation include the way in which companies took taxpayer dollars meant for workers and siphoned that money off to shareholders?
