New article in the National Post - 'Do not impose a stop pay': Federal workers ordered to ignore cheating in CERB and EI claims

See May 12, 2020 National Post article. Some interesting comments on CERB and its administration:

"Employment minister Carla Qualtrough has said the government knew there was a heightened risk of fraud with the pandemic-aid programs but wanted to get the money out to Canadians in need as quickly as possible, working later to claw back any unwarranted payments... Marielle Hossack, a spokeswoman for Qualtrough, said the system was designed to disperse the funds quickly with “backend safeguards” to ensure that any payments made to ineligible recipients are eventually repaid."
