Mr. Speaker, I am not familiar with the federal government program of fuel subsidies. Unless the Member is referring to the rebates that the federal government has paid. With regard to those, if someone was eligible and received a rebate from the federal government, then that has no bearing on our program. We are looking at ours separately.
The same applies to seniors who may have gotten fuel assistance. They would also be eligible for this one. The main criteria is that the applicant for the household has to have purchased fuel themselves. They cannot have had the fuel given to them by an employer or a landlord. They must have some evidence that they have purchased fuel.
