Merci, Monsieur le President. I want to pick up where my colleague from Monfwi just left off almost in terms of income assistance. But so my question is for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment.
The federal House of Commons announced two cash benefits to offset the impacts of the large increases in the inflation rate. These were passed I think about ten days ago in the House of Commons, Mr. Speaker. Benefits include the one-time doubling of the GST rebate to low income citizens and a one-time $500 benefit for low income renters. So I would like to ask the Minister if he and his staff are aware of these newly-approved benefits and whether they're going to be clawed back from income assistance? Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.
