I am happy to do that. Thank you.
Why is it six months? The first reason is that, as you may know, new parents in Quebec are covered under the Quebec parental insurance plan, so we need some time to negotiate and have discussions with Quebec. They may need time to make potential adjustments on their end in order to make sure there's alignment between their plan and what's proposed in this bill.
The second reason is that some employers offer supplementary unemployment benefit plans that top up EI benefits. They need time to be notified and to make potential adjustments to their plans in order to account for the extra time being provided under this bill.
Finally, the third reason is that we need time to update guidance materials and communications materials. Deanne can talk more about that, if needed.
Thank you.
