I'd like to remind hon. members that we're talking about an extremely serious situation, a situation that has called into question people's ability to make ends meet, a situation that required emergency measures. We're going to continue to do the job that Canadians expect.
The question was, how many prisoners have received the cheques?
I've already explained to the hon. memberand I'm pleased to remind himthat this benefit is an emergency measure.
