Is the Government of Canada required to file a proof of claim with trustees/receivers for the purpose of issuing WEPP payments to applicants?
The provisions of Section 36 of the Wage Earner Protection Program Act stipulate that an applicant subrogates his or her right, in respect to the amount of a WEPP payment for unpaid wages, to her Majesty in right of Canada. As such, only the applicant (i.e. the worker) is required to file a proof of claim to trustees/receivers.
