Thank you.

I have a second question.

I'll ask this one in English. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business assesses the impact of the resumption of EI premium increases beginning next year over four years. They have estimated that as many as 200,000 jobs might be lost by reintroducing these hikes beginning next year. Do you have any interpretation or analysis of their figure of this potential loss of 200,000 jobs when EI premiums begin to increase again next year?
