I wanted to talk for a few minutes about EI and a number of measures that have been announced, such as the allocation of over $4 billion to improve employment insurance benefits and provide for more training opportunities. Provinces like Ontario are beginning to feel the pinch, it seems. There are noises coming forward that they anticipate that their social welfare costs are going up, and they expect that they're going to go up even further and that they are not going to be able to handle that. In your analysis, is this $4 billion to improve employment insurance benefits and provide more training opportunities going to be enough to deal with the challenges that are out there and will come at us in the next year?
