 Bonjour tout le monde. Before I get started, I want to take a moment to recognize Canadians who are doing some of the toughest jobs in the country. The women and men working in our hospitals, our seniors' homes, and our long-term care facilities are making sacrifices every day. If you do one of these jobs, thank you. Thank you for keeping us safe and healthy and protecting our loved ones. You deserve our full support, so if you need a hand getting through these tough times, we'll be there for you. Today, we're announcing more help for more Canadians. This includes topping up the pay of essential workers. At the same time, we'll also be expanding the Canada Emergency Response Benefit to reach people who are earning some income, as well as for seasonal workers who are facing no jobs, and for those who have run out of EI recently. A little later, I'll have some news about where we are with testing. In Parliament, you heard me talk about the contributions of the greatest generation, those who grew up during the Great Depression and who fought for the Second World War. Today, through the country, the last members of this generation live in homes for elderly people and long-term care facilities. The tragic and disturbing truth is that the same places where we take care of our seniors are particularly vulnerable to COVID-19. It's a subject I'll discuss with the Prime Minister during our discussion that will take place tomorrow evening. We all have to do better. We all have to prove leadership to support the seniors who built this country. To begin, our government will work with provinces and territories to increase the salaries of our essential workers who earn less than $2,500 a month, and we will continue to do so. You heard me speak in Parliament about the contributions of the greatest generation, who grew up during the Depression and fought through the Second World War. Today, across the country, the last members of this generation live in nursing homes and long-term care facilities. The uncomfortable and tragic truth is that the very places that care for our elderly are the most vulnerable to COVID-19. I'll be addressing this with premiers tomorrow night. We all need to do better. We all need to take leadership for the seniors who've built this country. Our government will work with the provinces and territories to boost wages for essential workers who are making under $2,500 a month, like those in our long-term care facilities. For many workers looking after the most vulnerable Canadians, including seniors and those with disabilities, we know conditions have gotten more difficult over the past weeks, and you need support right now. Tomorrow, in our weekly meeting, I will discuss with provincial and territorial leaders the importance of getting this wage boost in place as quickly as possible. As we face an unprecedented threat to public health, you are our most important line of defence. We will do whatever we can to help you do your job and support you through this time. In March, our government has installed the Canadian emergency service. This measure is part of a plan that we have set in place to look at whether everyone has the necessary help to go through this difficult period. Millions of people have already received the award, but we know that the world is not admissible. There is always a need for help. So today, we are going to support the criteria of admissibility to allow even more people to benefit. If you earn $1,000 a month or less, you will now be able to receive the Canadian emergency service because a lot of people don't work as much as before, and others must adapt to the reality of work at work or at work. The workers who have exhausted their employment insurance performance recently will also be able to receive the service. And through the country, a lot of people will not be able to work as hard this year because of the pandemic, and therefore the Canadian emergency service will be there for them as well. It is also a difficult context for the artists and the creators across the country. Cultural places are closed, and work is getting rarer. Minister Gilbaugh heard from the artists who asked that the rights of the authors for the work done before this crisis are not included to access the Canadian emergency service, and that's what we're going to do. So in these anxious times, the artists continue to make us think, to make us dream, and to put a bit of sun in our daily lives, and we still recognize them. Today, I can announce that we are expanding the Canada Emergency Response Benefit to include people making up to $1,000 a month, seasonal workers, and people whose EI has recently run out. Maybe you're a volunteer firefighter or a contractor who can pick up some shifts, or you have a part-time job in a grocery store. Even if you're still working or if you want to start working again, you probably need help in making ends meet. So if you earn $1,000 or less a month, you'll now be able to apply for the CERB. If you were expecting a seasonal job that isn't coming because of COVID-19, you'll now be able to apply. And if you've run out of EI since January 1st, you can now apply for the CERB as well. And for others who still need help, including post-secondary students and businesses worried about commercial rent, we'll have more to say to you very soon. No matter who you are or where you live, we're in your corner. After accepting a first request from the Canadian Armed Forces for Nunavik, the government of Quebec sent us a second request for the North Coast. I can assure you that these are the Canadian Rangers who will go to pay their bills. After having accepted the first demand for help from the Canadian Armed Forces for Nunavik, the Government of Quebec has sent us a second request for the North Coast. I can confirm that the Canadian Rangers will be there to provide support. I want to thank our women and men in uniform and the families who serve alongside them for all that they do. Whenever we need you most, you're always there for us. By the time we can feel overcome by events, we're in a situation that may seem unreal and it's not always easy to compose with everything that's happening around us. This week, the government launched a portal that brings together all the resources in terms of mental health that are at your disposal. You can go to canada.ca or use the Canada COVID-19 application to talk to someone. There's no one to feel like that. The important thing is to seek help. If you're feeling overwhelmed, know that you aren't alone. And there are people who can help. We have launched a mental health portal at canada.ca and through the Canada COVID-19 app where you can go to find support. So if you need to, please reach out. We'll be there for each other. Finally, we have more news today to share on testing. Lumen Ultra from New Brunswick with whom we signed a contract is now ramping up production of enough COVID-19 test chemicals to meet the weekly demand in all provinces. And in the last few days, we received a new batch of swabs to make sure every province has the supplies they need to keep testing. Whether it's reagents or test kits, we are ensuring that Canada has the tools to fight this virus. Tomorrow, I'll also be speaking with the other G7 leaders about continuing to coordinate a strong and effective global response to this pandemic. Lumen Ultra from New Brunswick is increasing its production capacity to provide enough chemical products to perform the COVID-19 tests that we have to do every week in all provinces. And in the last few days, we received more supplies for the provinces. I know that everyone wants to know when life will take its course. And the reality is that we can't give you a precise date. But here's what we know. In order for it to end, you have to stay at home. You have to limit our travel as much as possible and keep a distance of two meters from the others. And if everyone does their part, we will go through it together. Thank you.
