Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Human Resources Development.
The government has conducted extensive public consultations on the reform of Canada's social programs. During that process one of the important issues raised had to do with unemployment insurance benefits for seasonal workers.
As the minister is expected to announce reforms to the unemployment insurance system later this year, could the minister assure the House that he will continue to give full credit to seasonal workers in recognition of their valuable contribution to the Canadian economy?
