Thank you very much, Mr. McColeman and Mr. Hodgson.
I have one point I'd like to raise with Ms. MacKay. It relates to the P.E.I. zones, just so that committee members are aware.
Prince Edward Island is about 250 kilometres long. We have 146,000 people. In my riding, the split between the zones is a place called the Riverdale Road, which is 20 kilometres from the edge of Charlottetown. I have one constituent who is on one side of the Riverdale Road, and the other is on the other side. They both work at the same place, in the seasonal eatery called New Glasgow Lobster Suppers. One barely qualifies for EI and gets a few weeks, and the other one qualifies substantially.
Do I have that summed up right, and would you have any dollar figures on what the difference would be between their access to safety net of the EI system?
