I haven't heard of FTSE being cancelled, was it? If it's cancelled I would say yes, claim in for sure. I'm debating this with my son. He has BMQ and made more than $5000 last year as well. He's still getting paid for the half day a week but an argument might be able to be made that he is missing out on weekends that were cancelled. Someone I know told me his son in the same situation asked a CRA agent that question and posed it the way I mentioned about weekends and she told him to claim it. I would say answer the questions they ask honestly and if you can, maybe try not to spend the money just in case you need to pay it back. There are still way too many questions with who qualifies and all the different scenarios.
