Not even a year! It was scheduled, funded, planned and then cancelled by the newly elected provincial government after they campaigned on keeping the program to its completion.
It was designed to run 3 years, and people had barely begun implementing the plans they wanted over that time.
IIRC some had taken the money and used it to improve their current lives, others left jobs to pursue schooling or start businesses. Those plans didn't get to come to fruition because of the drastic about-face by the gov.
