I just have a couple of comments.
First, I've always felt that trying to craft a bill retrospectively to cover a particular situation, as Mr. Lessard has in mind, is not a good thing to do. Second, it is much broader than that and catches anyone who would have been in similar circumstances for the period starting January 1, 2008.
As I understand his amendment, if there were a dispute on January 2, 2008, you would reach back 52 weeks to 2007 to determine what benefits the person would be paid. But it would only be for those disputes that came into effect on January 1, 2008, or later.
Is that correct?
