The prime minister said the funds will go towards new online platforms for mental health supports and primary care for those don’t need to visit a doctor in person. The funding would also allow “specialized tools” to be available for those who belong to marginalized communities.

Trudeau also spoke about the next steps as some Canadian provinces prepare to begin reopening their economy. He said he’s confident the economy will “come roaring back” once COVID-19 restrictions are lifted because of the strength of the economy going into the pandemic.

Trudeau also announced that in May parents would be given a $300 top-up per child on the Canada child benefit (CCB).

Trudeau also addressed gun control during his Sunday briefing, as well as reports the novel coronavirus originated in a Wuhan, China laboratory. He said its “too early to draw any conclusions” on the origins of the virus.

On gun control, Trudeau said that in addition to the assault-style weapons ban recently introduced his government would be bringing in additional gun control measures “when parliament allows it” that will include restrictions around safe storage, borders and measures that would permit municipalities to ban handguns.

"You know, there’s a level of of admiration I actually have for China because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually turn their economy around on a dime.."

I can’t even listen this guy I only see the amount of money what he wants to dump in this hoax and my anger needs a management.
Are you giving from your packet Justin? No!? Of course not, you would never go in such debt! You would loose everything what did you ever had. So manage this country same way as you manage your banking account.
Protect the vulnerable and let the rest of the country go to work. We do not need babysitters from outside or inside.

$240M on Online Healthcare = $240M taxpayer money down the drain. How much more money can the Liberals wate?

What about those vulnerable Canadians suffering from domestic abuse? What about seniors living by themselves? What does the government do to support them?

I’m in for financial emergency measures. But I cannot just ignore the fact that some would rather not work anymore because of these “free money” pouring in. I saw a lot of families with 5-6 kids, with only 1-2 years gap between their ages. Obviously they don’t practice family planning. Fact is, unless you’re rich, you cannot afford to finance these kids’ education. But who cares. There’s always money from the government or should I say, from Canadian taxpayers, right? And expect more taxes going through the roof in the coming months/years, that’s for sure.

2 Timothy 1:6-14 God has not given us the spirit of fear, but the spirit of power,  of courage and resolution, to meet difficulties and dangers; the spirit of love to him, which will carry us through opposition. And the spirit of a sound mind, quietness of mind.
