You do realize that the median household income in Canada is $59,800, right? $96K is waaay past living wage territory.

The CRA has announced that it will be verifying applicant’s eligibility to receive the CESB after the student has applied. If you apply to receive the CESB, you may be asked to provide supporting documents. We encourage you to collect and keep documents that support your eligibility including, but not limited to, proof enrollment or graduation date, records of income or invoices of supplemental income earned during the eligibility period and, if applicable, documentation regarding your disability and/or your dependants.
So if you're in school keep your T22022 and how much you make. My guess is if you file your taxes already they won't ask becaue they already know.

Pretty sure it's not automatic and you have to apply, and it isn't just money for students, you also have to show you haven't been able to find work or lost a job due to the virus. It isn't just free money if you have a T2202 in the last year.

Today had 413, yesterday 390, when you are looking at a 50-70 positive test difference in a province of 13 million, I think it’s tough to attribute too much to that. Particularly now that they are testing anyone that has any symptom, and starting to test more people that don’t have symptoms. I believe they announced late last week that they were expanding the testing criteria, and there doesn’t seem to be any backlog, so that would be affecting current numbers.
Imo, a more important number to keep any eye on as restrictions loosen would be the number of people in hospital or icu. Both of those numbers seem to be dropping. On May 12th, there were 1,025 people hospitalized and 192 in the icu. As of today, those two numbers are at 984 and 155....again talking relatively small differences, but there doesn’t seem to be anything to suggest hospitals are on the way to being overloaded as the province opens up.

Hopefully your aunt will recover from this too. My mother in her mid 60s finally tested negative a few days back after having it for almost a month. Luckily my father didn’t contract it from her especially considering he’s immune compromised. For her she suffered all the well known symptoms minus pneumonia but overall she has had excellent health and she’s very active so I was mostly concerned for my dad.
I see a lot of these “truthers” claiming all sorts of nonsense. One example just a few posts down. It’s these same people that don’t take the severity serious until it hits home. For my mom it hit home when she saw 8 people from her ward succumb to the virus in one day. She’s seen people die in the past so it’s not new to her but not multiple people all in one day. I guess all these people just happened to coincidentally die all on the same day and all for completely separate reasons since covid is labeled to anyone that dies of any illness right!?

Someone said that you couldn't compare because it would have been much worse if we didn't lock down. To that I say this thing was around in December or January and was spreading for months before the lockdown. If it was really that dangerous, the hospitals would have been filled. They claimed they were, but they weren't. Their published numbers confirm this fact. The CDC admitted today that they were combining serology and PCR test numbers, which would have made the virus appear to be spreading, when in fact it had already gone through the population.
99% of confirmed cases in Sweden have mild symptoms. That means the percentage of people in the population with serious symptoms is much lower, as they're not factoring in unidentified, largely asymptomatic cases. This is true for other areas - many of which have reversed the lockdown and have not seen the apocalypse.
Even now as they claim the virus is spreading exponentially because of mother's day, the truth is that the number of people in the hospital with covid has held steady. In fact, the number of people in the hospital went down yesterday by 23 from the day before.
In Ontario's daily reporting, a death of a confirmed case is labelled a Covid death regardless of the cause of death. As in, if you had stage 4 cancer and acquired it the day before you died, it's a Covid death. In long term care facilities a death is a covid death even if there's no test performed, as long as the patient had a single symptom. An outbreak at a long term care facility is considered a single patient with a confirmed test. It's these sorts of misrepresentations of the facts that's striking fear in the population. You can look up these facts in their documentation.
