I very much appreciate it.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6241244\" data-originallang=\"en\">I'm going to get to a couple of questions for both witnesses.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6241245\" data-originallang=\"en\"> I'll start with Mr. Cordes, because I'm on the English channel.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6241246\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Cordes, my colleague <a data-HoCid=\"252826\" href=\"/politicians/kate-young/\" title=\"Kate Young\">Kate Young</a> very much wanted to be here today. She wanted me to express her appreciation for the great work you do and to ask a question about whether you have seen a change in mental health or issues with respect to greater homelessness during the COVID pandemic. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6241247\" data-originallang=\"en\">I heard you answer Ryan's question already with respect to the five suicides and the added impact on mental health, but could you tell me about the added impact on homelessness?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6241248\" data-originallang=\"en\">The second question I have for you\u2014I'll let you both answer\u2014is this. Could you let me know if your organization has benefited from any of the COVID-related federal programs? Are you using the wage subsidy? Are you using the rental subsidy at all?</p>",

Elle m'a aussi charg\u00e9 de vous demander si la pand\u00e9mie de COVID-19 avait fait appara\u00eetre de nouveaux probl\u00e8mes de sant\u00e9 mentale ou avait aggrav\u00e9 le ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne de l'itin\u00e9rance.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6241247\" data-originallang=\"en\"> J'ai entendu la r\u00e9ponse que vous avez donn\u00e9e \u00e0 Ryan, au sujet des cinq suicides et des nouveaux probl\u00e8mes de sant\u00e9 mentale, mais pouvez-vous me dire si la pand\u00e9mie a aggrav\u00e9 le ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne de l'itin\u00e9rance?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6241248\" data-originallang=\"en\"> La deuxi\u00e8me question que je voudrais vous poser \u2014 et je m'adresse aux deux t\u00e9moins \u2014 est la suivante. Votre organisation re\u00e7oit-elle des subventions des programmes f\u00e9d\u00e9raux li\u00e9s \u00e0 la COVID-19? Recevez-vous la subvention salariale?
