Thank you, Madam Chair. I'll be sharing my time with Mr. Cannan.
I certainly appreciate this witness sharing his thoughts on this issue. I know that in many ways it's fairly personal.
If I were to break it into two areas as I'm listening to what you'd like to see happen, number one would be to examine the existing supports to see what may need to be done with respect to them and whether they need to be added to, augmented, or changed. That can be done through taxation, direct funding, amendments to the EI act, and that kind of thing. I would say these fall into the category of trying to bring it into the new century here. It's not necessarily big thinking, but that is one part of it.
