Okay. I'll just make one comment about special benefits generally and we can come back to that.
In general, special benefits should be designed with a different logic from that of regular benefits. The program elements that are intended to improve work incentives in the regular EI program make no sense in a program like parental leave, where the intent is actually to facilitate leave taking. We're not trying to ensure that people don't abuse the program and that they get back to work. We are saying we want people to have this leave. It has these health benefits. Yet many of the program parameters are applied to the parental maternity leave. That would include things like the waiting period. It would include things like the logic of not covering self-employed workers. There's no logic for that if we're talking about parental maternity leave.
Again, the final thing there would be some flexibility in terms of how parents want to use that. A model for that would be the Quebec program, where you can have higher replacement rates that encourage higher earners to take it with shorter periods, or you could have a longer leave with a lower replacement rate, etc., but some flexibility.
