Thank you, Madame Chair.
Mr. Moreau, you talked about how important the time off is for someone going through that kind of a tragedy. My understanding is that it is important because it ultimately helps people return to work and reintegrate into society. According to what you said, consequences would be even worse without that time off.
With that in mind, I would like to clarify something with you. As things currently stand, 30 weeks or 35 weeks after the death of a very ill child, their parents must in theory return to work the following week. We understand that the time frame is even shorter when the child dies on a Thursday. However, if a child goes missing or dies as a result of a crime, people have 52 weeks or 104 weeks to recover. It seems to me that something is wrong with this system.
A month ago, a young boy died quickly from a sudden bout of cancer. Everything played out in a few days. In such a case, people would not receive any assistance. How do you view this aspect of the law?
