I think you have to recognize the positive benefits of that. If you take a look, for example, at the unemployment rate, the employment rate, and the participation rate in Atlantic Canada in 1997, 1998, and 1999—before the changes in 1996 were undone—those raw numbers are pretty impressive. We actually put people to work. People actually started taking training that they hadn't been taking before.
I would suggest to you that the changes we saw in the early 1990s did exactly what we wanted them to do, which was put people to work, encourage them to train themselves, and make better lives for themselves so that they did not have to depend on long-term switching into and out of EI. I think that would be a better long-term goal than maximizing the benefits.
