We had CERB and some other programs that got people through the tough times. There was an application process for it, but most people who applied were approved immediately. This one wasn't really means tested, but you had to prove you were unemployed and there were various other qualifying criteria. It was a bit of a ####show at first and there's a lot of debate up here on the merits of it.
I personally think it was a good idea, but executed not as well as it should have been. Probably give the feds a 3/5 for it.
