Judy on a facebook conversation about getting the next stimulus a person said this.

“Look at what Canada has been paying their people every month . 2,000.00 a month per person.”

Is this true?

I repeat myself. Ask Snowdon what’s going on .....

.....
NSA uses towering, windowless skyscrapers, and fortress-like concrete structures that were built to withstand earthquakes and even nuclear attacks. Thousands of people pass by the buildings each day and rarely give them a second glance because their function is not publicly known. They are an integral part of one of the world’s largest telecommunications networks – and they are also linked to a controversial National Security Agency surveillance program.

Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. In each of these cities, The Intercept has identified an AT&T facility containing networking equipment that transports large quantities of internet traffic across the United States and the world. A body of evidence – including classified NSA documents, public records, and interviews with several former AT&T employees – indicates that the buildings are central to an NSA spying initiative that has for years monitored billions of emails, phone calls, and online chats passing across U.S. territory.....

On March 25, 2020, Canada’s legislature passed an emergency bill responding to Covid-19. Many of the benefits it created were extended in a second aid package passed in August.

The $2,000 figure in the tweet refers to the direct aid made available through the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB).

In contrast to the US Economic Impact Payment, which was a one-time check, CERB granted a Can$2,000 (about $1,551) monthly allowance to certain qualified Canadians.

Individuals had to show they lost their job due to the pandemic, were sick, quarantined, or taking care of someone who was sick with Covid-19, or were a working parent who stayed home without pay to care for children who were sick or at home because of school and daycare closures.

I think that’s our unemployment payment. I’m retired, so it sure wouldn’t apply to me. My kids and spouses have remained working, so it wouldn’t apply to them either. I have heard that it’s the case though, because now the businesses that are open cannot get people to work for them because they get paid more to stay home.
