Madam Chair, with respect, I have some concerns about starting a study that is affecting only one province. First and foremost, comparing anything with EI to anything that is related to workers' compensation is like trying to compare apples and oranges, since workers' compensation is solely owned within the jurisdiction of the province.
So it may be that federal workers in Quebec need to have that discussion with their workers' compensation board or directly with their legislature, but because this study would influence only a small percentage of the workers in Canada and does not influence any other province, I'm hesitant to support this.
