Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to the officials for coming.
The nature of Parliament sometimes makes it seem as if we're adversarial. That's never my intent. I know the people of Service Canada are working hard in a difficult time. Although I do have questions about the political direction, I don't doubt the bureaucracy.
I want to talk about the $60 million that the minister announced as new money for the processing of EI claims. In the supplementary estimates, $59.7 million is allocated, and it says, “Funding to compensate for the reduction in administrative costs charged to the Employment Insurance Account”. Can you explain that $59.7 million versus the $60 million to me?
