Mr. Speaker, last spring, the NDP asked that self-employed workers be covered by the employment insurance system.
We tabled a motion in this House that was supported by the majority of members.
The government reiterated on a number of occasions that access to employment insurance by the self-employed was a priority. It was an election promise.
When will the government keep its promise? When will it put forward a plan to extend employment insurance benefits to self-employed workers?
