We have seen some analysis from CFIB. The way it has calculated those job numbers is not the way that the job impact of a policy measure is normally calculated. It is talking about a job-year or person-year impact over a long period of time, which I believe is a 10-year period.
First of all, on the structure, based on the Employment Insurance Act, the account has to be balanced over a seven-year period. There is really no way you can get any gain or losses from this account by changing the premium. Whatever you do now, if you give credit now on EI, you have to offset that in the future by having the rate higher than what it would have been. If you maintain a higher rate now, the rate in the future will be lower. Whatever you do in that account over that period of time, it has to balance.
In effect, you can't really get any positive or negative impact from this account on the activity or on jobs.
