Bill C-4 establishes three temporary COVID-19 income support benefits (recovery, sickness, and caregiving benefits of $500 per week) and expands federal employee leave entitlements for COVID-19 related reasons until September 2021.

What It Means

Bill C-4, the COVID-19 Response Measures Act, creates three new COVID-related income support programs and makes changes to federal labour standards. **Part 1** establishes the Canada Recovery Benefits Act, which creates three temporary benefit programs: - The **Canada Recovery Benefit** (CRB): Provides $500 per week for up to 13 two-week periods (September 27, 2020 to September 25, 2021) to people who lost at least 50% of their income due to COVID-19. Eligibility requires at least $5,000 annual income, being at least 15 years old, and actively seeking work. People earning over $38,000 must repay 50 cents per dollar of income above that threshold. - The **Canada Recovery Sickness Benefit** (CRSB): Provides $500 per week for up to 2 weeks to people unable to work due to COVID-19 illness or isolation. Requires the same income threshold and age requirement. - The **Canada Recovery Caregiving Benefit** (CRCB): Provides $500 per week for up to 26 weeks to people unable to work because they must care for children under 12 or adults requiring supervised care due to COVID-19 related closures or illnesses. Only one household member per week can access this benefit. All three benefits require a valid Social Insurance Number, residence and presence in Canada during the benefit period, and attestation of eligibility. Applications must be made within 60 days of the benefit period. The Minister can reconsider applications within 36 months (72 months if false statements were made). People can request a review of decisions within 30 days. The bill makes consequential amendments to the Income Tax Act and Income Tax Regulations to allow repayment of CRB overpayments as tax deductions and to allow tax information to be shared for administering these programs. **Part 2** amends the Canada Labour Code to expand COVID-19 related leave entitlements for federally regulated employees. Employees can now take: - Up to 2 weeks of leave if they contracted or might contract COVID-19, have underlying health conditions that make them more susceptible, or are isolating on medical advice. - Up to 26 weeks of leave to care for children under 12 or adults requiring supervised care when facilities are closed or unavailable due to COVID-19. The Governor in Council has temporary authority (until September 25, 2021) to modify health certificate requirements in certain circumstances. The bill also makes related amendments to the COVID-19 Emergency Response Act and repeals certain regulations. **Part 3** amends the Public Health Events of National Concern Payments Act to limit payments from October 1, 2020 onwards to specified COVID-19 measures with designated spending limits, and postpones the repeal of that Act until December 31, 2020. The bill received Royal Assent on October 2, 2020.

  • Ineligibility for benefits: failure to provide required information or appear for interviews results in ineligibility for the benefit in question
  • Garnishment: Minister may order financial institutions to withdraw from deposit accounts and employers to deduct from wages to recover overpayments
  • Debt collection: overpayments and penalties become debts due to the Crown that can be recovered through various means including set-off against future government payments
  • Certificate of default: the Minister may file a certificate with the Federal Court that has the same effect as a court judgment
  • Recovery actions: the Crown can pursue recovery of debts for six years from when the debt became payable (extended if acknowledged)
  • Investigation and prosecution: the Minister can designate investigators, including Canada Revenue Agency employees, to investigate offences under the Act
Uncertainties Or Limits
  • The bill text does not specify how much total funding is available for the three recovery benefit programs, only that money comes from the Consolidated Revenue Fund until March 31, 2024
  • It is unclear how the Minister will determine whether a 50% income reduction is reasonable in individual cases, as specific calculation methods are not detailed
  • The bill does not specify what 'reasonable' notice for leave under the Canada Labour Code amendments should look like or how the written declaration requirement will be enforced
  • The exact process and timeline for ministerial review of benefit eligibility decisions is not fully specified
  • The bill allows for regulations to be made to prescribe additional income sources and other income, but does not specify what these will be
  • The Governor in Council's authority to modify health certificate requirements is temporary but the specific circumstances under which this can be used (beyond vague language about 'strain on health care system') are not detailed
  • It is unclear how the definition of 'family member' for caregiving benefit purposes will be verified or what documentation will be required
  • The bill does not specify penalties for employers who violate the prohibition on dismissing employees for taking COVID-19 leave
