We've been working on this issue for a number of years and we've been asking the government to make changes to the employment insurance system. We were under the impression that the government would move forward this year so that this system could once again become adequate and enable workers to live comfortably. However, that is not the case, and it's unfortunate.
I think of the seasonal workers who have started receiving EI benefits again. I wonder what will happen to them again this winter. I find their situation to be very difficult. When they call us to try to get news, we tell them all the time that we are working hard for them.
