Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate my colleague on his excellent speech. He raised several very good points.
For women who lose their jobs at the end of their parental leave, this bill does not go far enough and does not allow them to combine special and regular benefits. What can the NDP do? It must continue to fight for women's rights in order to obtain employment insurance benefits for women who lose their jobs immediately after they return to work. The Conservatives clearly have overlooked this aspect. They have not thought about that.
I would like to hear what my colleague has to say about this issue.
