"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5736314\" data-originallang=\"en\"> If you make other assumptions about what percentages of those 135,000 would use how many extra weeks, you can come up with different calibrations. That's why my best guesstimate is between $50 million and $100 million. That's partly based on the fact that when other programs, such as the compassionate care benefit and others, were rolled out, the government's official target estimates tended to be larger than what the actual program obligations were for the subsequent rollout of the programs, so the officials were cautious and estimating high costs. The actual rollouts tended to be lower. It's harder take-up, awareness, applications, etc. So these programs tend to roll out not as high as some. Again, this would be the work of the officials to do.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5736314\" data-originallang=\"en\">On obtient divers ordres de grandeur en jouant avec les proportions, parmi les 135 000 personnes, et avec le nombre de semaines suppl\u00e9mentaires. Voil\u00e0 pourquoi ma meilleure \u00e9valuation se situe entre 50 et 100 millions de dollars. Cela d\u00e9coule en partie du fait qu'au moment de lancer d'autres programmes, comme la prestation de compensation et d'autres, le gouvernement avait tendance \u00e0 fixer des cibles officielles plus \u00e9lev\u00e9es que les obligations r\u00e9elles. Les fonctionnaires \u00e9taient prudents et surestimaient les co\u00fbts, mais les co\u00fbts r\u00e9els avaient tendance \u00e0 \u00eatre plus bas. L'adoption, la sensibilisation et l'application sont plus difficiles, de sorte que ces programmes sont moins utilis\u00e9s que d'autres. Encore une fois, ce travail rel\u00e8ve des fonctionnaires.</p>"
