"CERB perspective: think twice before repeating another anecdote about the program making low-wage workers hesitant to return to jobs." — Former Scotiabank VP & Deputy Chief Economist Brett House

CERB proved that if you give away free money, it disincentivizes people to work. Ask all those people that received CERB and took a nice summer off during covid while positions couldn't be filled. Oh, and look at our debt.

CERB proved that people will scam the government if they can. UBI will be a bureaucratic nightmare costing the government billions in administration. And no people will not work if they get sufficient free money to not have to. And who pays for the UBI?

CERB proved fraud is rampant

The CERB is the reason our economy is destroyed right now, by rising interest rates, rampant inflation, and stagnant wages.

Almost all my son’s friends did not return to work until they learned how much off their CERB they had to pay back in taxes. How much UBI has to be paid back in income taxes?

Oh look another WEF affiliated member for SDGs telling us how great a welfare state would be for us. CERB was a short term program and is no wat an accurate bench mark.

Where do these people come from? None of what he said is true.

Cerb was riddled with fraud. Something to the tune of 4.5 billion

100% grain-fed baseless bullsh*t.

Employment isn't "bouncing back" for low wage earners. Instead, high and medium wage earners are becoming low wage earners.
