Yes I was notified by my wife’s HR manager about this. She said there is strong chance the company will be closed for longer. Now the new rules also say :
The CERB will become available to Canadians who have exhausted their employment insurance (EI) benefits since Jan. 1, seasonal workers who can’t find work because of COVID-19, and those who earn up to $1,000 a month, the prime minister said.”
Again I am confused.
Just pointing out that while you didn‘t qualify before you do now.
