Minister, my question concerned the calculation of the unemployment rate.
I represent a riding that is experiencing full employment. Despite that fact, some workers hold seasonal employment in the agri-food sector, for example. The owner of a lawn maintenance business recently told me he had had to lend money to his employees. The employer spoke to me about the black hole his employees were in. He isn't interested in seeing his employees go to work in the plant next door, which is experiencing a labour shortage. He trained them and wants them to be available when the season starts. That's the labour market reality I'm talking about.
In a single region, you have, on the one hand, a situation of full employment and, on the other hand, seasonal workers and young people who move from job to job and are experiencing unstable employment.
We have to rethink the way the employment insurance program is currently designed. You're telling us you'll be announcing a reform, but when will that reform take place?
