Thank you very much, Mr. Shillington.

You didn't have to convince me of the advantages of the Quebec plan. It definitely suits more women than the EI benefits.

We know that women do earn less than men, and when they go on maternity leave they quite often don't take the time they should. The Quebec plan is definitely an advantage.

Could you elaborate more on the advantages of the Quebec plan?
