2. Masks, I'd mail every Canadian a re-usable mask and make them mandatory to wear when outside in public or at work with co-workers.

3. Part-time jobs. Forget mailing people money, hire them to cleanup beaches/roads or plant trees while they are out of work. As its outdoor work its easy to maintain distancing and you'd be required to wear a mask.

4. Infrastructure upgrades such as roads that can be upgraded quickly so that travel between cities/provinces is improved after lockdown.

5. Reducing sales tax to 0% for 3 months and reducing capital gains tax by 30% of the total for 3 months. Boost transactions and give people a reason to participate in our economy.

Wow, you have my vote
