Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland says the Omicron COVID-19 variant has injected renewed uncertainty into the economy, in arguing for the government’s latest benefits package

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland says the need for MPs to approve a new round of pandemic aid has become more important amid fears related to the Omicron variant of COVID-19.

The Liberals want the bill, known as C-2, to get approval before parliamentarians go on their winter break at the end of next week. The parliamentary budget officer says the federal government’s plan to extend its wage subsidy will push the overall price for the program to almost $106.7 billion.

There is a shock our communist band of branch covidian utrudopian cult members not doing their job, who would have thought that!!!!!!!!!

They don't know how mild it is yet. It could turn out to be as mild as a vaccine and produce lots of antibodies.

kkirkup All the context is removed. They called a pointless election during the pandemic. They delayed the reopening of Parliament after the election, despite criticism. They have not consulted Pariament, and so cut covid aid with only BLOC support! Shame shame freeland canpoli

This govt is a laugh, they want to pass a bill quickly , after they called a unnecessary election and then waited more than 30day to get back to work, why wasn’t quickly paetof that approach after the election

It's time to end the Vaccine Mandatory, the Vaccine disaster is coming.
