Liberals propose tighter rules for CERB, penalties for fraudulent claims
The Liberal government is proposing legislation that would impose tighter rules for claiming the Canada emergency response benefit (CERB) and is threatening to impose fines and jail time on those who deliberately lie on applications.
The bill comes as the government faces pressure from the Conservatives on the one hand to weed out fraudulent claims and urge people to get back to work — and pressure from the NDP on the other hand to extend emergency aid and avoid going after Canadians who file ineligible claims.
In a bill to be tabled in the House of Commons Wednesday, the government says Canadians won't be eligible to claim the benefit if:
They fail to go back to work when it is reasonable to do so, and their employer asks them to return.
They fail to resume self-employment when it's reasonable to do so.
They decline a reasonable job offer when they are able to work.
The bill also lays out penalties for claimants whose applications include information that is "false or misleading," and for those who "knowingly failed" to disclose sources of income or other relevant facts when they applied for the federal aid.

I think the hardest part of doing time for Mel will be he won't be able to whine online about big bad Fashionista.
Who wooda thot our Fash would have become as mean as mel, my hero as a pinnacle of truth, describes
I read something about a special prison for CERB offenders was being hastily built by some kraut who modeled it after a place ... I forget the name of the model .. started with "Aus" I think

Ottawa knows that it encourages abuse.
yes to both .. encourages abuse and Ottawa knows
Ottawa has itself in a pickle. It is very difficult and expensive to track the validity of every case .. virtually impossible
I'm sure the abuse is a big number and impossible to track if for one example a claim of feeling unsafe at their workplace is legit .. and how does one even define safety
In the case of self-employed it's very difficult, virtually impossible to determine if claim is legit

Tracking income is easy. It's also easy to find out if they were recalled at their workplaces. And if employers comply with provincial guidelines on social distancing in the workplace, that takes away the safety excuse for not returning to work.
Canadians who made fraudulent claims for the coronavirus emergency benefit could face a fine of up to $5,000, a penalty double what they received in improper benefits and jail time.
Those who refuse to go back to work could also face financial penalties.
That's according to a draft version of legislation expected to be tabled by the federal government on Wednesday, and which aims to fill in some of the gaps in the existing rules.
Making a false or misleading claim, failing to declare all income, knowingly receiving an income benefit that a person isn't eligible for, non-disclosure of facts or facilitating omission of any facts are all listed as offences under that legislation.
Committing any of them will land a person a fine of up to $5,000 "plus an amount of not more than double the amount of the income support payment that was or would have been paid as a result of committing the offence."
They could also get hit with the fine of up to $5,000 plus up to six months in jail.
Continuing to collect the benefit while refusing to work will also result in penalties.
The legislation says individuals in that category include those who "fail to return to work when it is reasonable to do so and the employer makes a request for their return; fail to resume self-employment when it is reasonable to do so; or decline a reasonable job offer when they are able to work."
Doing so could result in a retroactive fine of up to triple the amount improperly claimed once the individual was able to return to work.

And speaking of beatings, Mel had best learn to take them. A little fairy like him will be getting plenty of beatings after he is locked up.
With the cares act in the USyou cannot claim if you have substantial savings, Is it the same in Canada with CERB

Bullshit. Apply for provincial assistance and that is one of the first questions they ask.
Mel is fucked then
In Alberta, to apply for income assistance, you must show proof of the following:
identification
proof of assets
banking information
proof of employment income
medical forms (if you cannot work)
immigration papers if you came to Canada in the last 10 years
Mel with his parked gravel truck is abusing the CERB? He bought that place he's at with his parent's inheritance so I wouldn't put it past him. Taste of easy money is one of the downfalls of weak men.

He didn't need it and most likely, he'll have to pay it all back..
But, I don't think Mel thinks about consequences or his own future.
Could you imagine that effeminate little white crybaby homo Mel behind bars, He will dead within a week. ac_lmfao
Ripping off the government is very easy. Folks have made careers out of it. He will skate along with tens of thousands of other Canadians. No will, nor the resourses to prosecute.

He might as well be booked, he's already crooked and cooked
Hauling has never stopped. We have had dozens of dump trucks working 12 hrs a day across the street and all over town ... soil carried away, sand and gravel brought in. It never slowed down anywhere
For trucking the curfew never applied. Dump trucks spread gravel, sand etc. .. not virus.
Seems yours spreads only bullshit. Your lazy ass is in deep trouble, mel
I'm innocent, until my guilt is proven!
How can people who run their own business collect cerb? Far as I know, if these people shut their business down, they aren't able to get EI at all.
Mel shuts down shop, moves away and buys a house and hasn't worked in months, and he's collecting cerb...I thought to myself before, somewhere down the line, this guy is gonna get dinged. I'm sure a lot of people will...so many taking advantage of things.

He won't be. I remember when I was in my early 20's, I owed the government a small amount of money...I paid it off, but I guess I was $20 short...anyway...I moved away...finally after 4 years, I get a letter in my mail from the government, and they wanted their $20, and I had 30 days from the mailing date to pay this money....I couldn't believe it! It took them 4 years to find me just for 20 dollars.

All kidding aside, I have a buddy that went to jail for some minor charge years ago. It was kinda comical though, as it was only on weekends... He had to show up Friday evening, and was released Sunday evening. He had to do that for a couple months. His cell-mates were usually pretty chill, and he had no problems.

You think this is a country club? There's a lot of things that go on in there that you don't hear about. Don't piss anyone off...one thing that the inmates like to do when someone pisses them off....they take the butter pkgs abd put all the butter in a bowl, microwave it till its boiling, then wait for the person they are mad at to walk by and throw it at them....melt your skin.
Some guys wacking off right there in front of everyone...take their clothes off infront of everyone and flap their dick up and down while smiling at you like a freak.
Some of the food they serve is pkged shit made to look like food...most inmates will take a job and buy their own food, like chips n stuff...most come out with weight gain.
There's riots, lockdowns...sometimes the heat doesn't work and they don't care....once everything gets settled after a riot, they can leave everyone in their cells for days on end.
Have you ever actually been to a jail Mel? Have you been inside one?
Prison aint that bad... It is for some characters.
The army aint that bad either... It is for some people though..
You can get by not getting involved and by not showing any fear.
Just be the silent, calm guy and they think you are the worst guy in there.
The ladies think that the army and prison are really bad places..
And they think the guy who survives in there is the alpha dog.
= lots of pussy.
We like to keep them thinking that way.. :laugh3:

There are people out in society who commit serious crimes everyday...some go years before getting caught...and some commit smaller offenses like you. Do you know who are sitting next to in a public place? Could be anyone, an abuser, rapist, pedo, fraudster, murderer, idiot, etc....all sorts of crimes...the courts are overwhelmed with these kinds of people..it can be years before some see a trial cause there are so many of them.
I'm thankful for the experience, I got to see first hand what the prisons were all about from the inside. I talked to a lot of other inmates there during some social dinners...I also got to know some CO's too. I know others who have done time for small shits too, they don't want to go back.
Its funny how guys who have never been to prison or even stepped inside of one think they are the shit and can handle it. Fuckin commit a crime and go then...tell us about your experience.
Its even more funny you have to bring up my kids dad, like it's supposed to be some sort of insult to me? Im not responsible for other peoples behaviour...and it's just like you are scraping the bottom of the barrel with the same crap and eventually you just piss yourself...and then you're proud of it.
Again, I am thankful for the experience of prison settings, being in a court room, dealing with judges, learning about the system...it's a fuckin joke...there is so much that is wrong with it...you probably don't even know, I studied the stupid laws... I took him to court...I won...he lost his rights...I even gave the judge shit cause she was saying stupid shit and coming up with laws that didnt exist, I slammed her everytime...the look on her face when I caught her was just fuckin priceless.
Dude, you get charged with something, good fuckin luck defending yourself 😂
You seem saddened that I haven't done any hard time... :laugh:
Berry, contrary to your circle of friends/relationships, the vast majority of people haven't done hard time, because most people usually don't kill other people.
However, you seem enlightened with your time spent in and around prison, so I'm glad you could enjoy that experience!

Methinks old Mel watches too many Hollywood movies.
Not all prisons are the same. Federal, Provincial, different security levels depending on the person and their crimes... Depending on where you're sent, time could be rough, or time could pass fairly easily. Not all prisons resemble death row or what is portrayed by Hollywood... Most people just want to do their time in relative peace before they're released.

Depending on where you're sent, time could be rough, or time could pass fairly easily. Not all prisons resemble death row or what is portrayed by Hollywood... Most people just want to do their time in relative peace before they're released.
It doesn't matter if it's a penn or provincial. You WILL be the weakest guy and the easiest mark for bullies. You will be killed. :yahoo:

"Figures released last week by the agency showed that 190,000 benefit payments had been repaid online as of June 3."
Wow!
Bill C- 17 was drafted to penalize those who either hide income or refused any work to claim up to $8,000 in CERB payments.
But Parliament refused to grant unanimous consent for quick passage of the enforcement bill with the NDP opposed to criminal sanctions.
Thanks to the NDP, Mel will avoid the slammer for now.
