If I have understood correctly, Mr. Flack and Madam Minister, you are saying that people could be penalized. If we were to decide today to try and do more than what is proposed in Bill C-24, approximately 40,000 people could lose their benefits in the week following the changes, and this number could be much higher if the passage of the bill were to be delayed until April or May.
We can't make these changes simultaneously because we're not sure we can do so without harming a lot of people.
Is that correct?
