Well Quebec is on shutdown, and we are hit too. So we are all off until April 13th, luckily we are still paid until then. If the lockdown lasts longer then we can take our vacations/sick days... before we have to apply for unemployment.

Yeah our office in Quebec is working through this, we are trying to arrange the EI Work Share thing for now, just a bad scene, but seems like it is being managed better in Canada in general. Hopefully things start to return to normal fairly soon as they have been pretty aggressive with shutting things down.

We are lucky so far that the Mine decided to pay all 700+ employee s full salary until the 13th of April .

My son was laid off, got EI immediately. In fact the only person I know in Montreal not laid off is my daughter, she’s a nurse.

Most have it worse than me, I get to spend time isolated at home with my wife and kids, with no money worries yet.

True, true. I know we’ve got to err on the side of safety and I think the idea of going back to work mid-pandemic is ghoulish
, but man, it’s painful in the meantime.
