How much correspondence have you received in opposition to extending the EI sickness benefit, and would you be willing to anonymize those letters and share them with the committee? I as an MP haven't received any correspondence from anyone. We have a unanimous decision of the House of Commons, and there have been petitions on this going back years. In fact one of the largest petitions in Canadian history is on the EI sickness benefit.
I'm wondering where the opposition to extending the EI sickness benefit is coming from. In whose interest are you acting when you rag the puck on this and fail to get it done?
