Christian Ouellet at the Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities Committee

Thank you, Madam Chair.

Mr. Thompson, you said in your opening statement that more than 85% of Canadian workers now have easier access to benefits. What do you mean by that? Do you mean that it was difficult for the people who came before them? What are you basing yourself on in referring to 85% of Canadian workers?
