Currently, the five weeks exist. I said earlier on that it results in about the same length of time that people in my riding had in the past. What we want to do is to put these two weeks back in. I do not understand why you absolutely insist on putting one measure up against the other. Why do you want to pit one against the other when the reality today is that the entire employment insurance program is unfair for the people who pay into it?
