Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Minister, I actually have a similar question to the one our Bloc colleague asked you previously. The sunset date for these benefits in Bill C-24 is, as you know, September 25, 2021—about seven months away.

It seemed to me you mentioned there's going to be a new EI system and that this will be the answer. The programs won't get cut off, but there's going to be a new more inclusive EI system. Is my understanding of your response correct?
