When a public health emergency was declared in March of 2020, the focus for the federal government was getting pandemic benefits into the hands of eligible recipients as quickly as possible, to help mitigate the sudden financial crisis faced by so many Canadians.
Since the beginning of the pandemic in March 2020, the federal government has provided a wide range of pandemic benefit programs for individuals.
