On the contrary, Mr. Speaker. In fact, we established a new program that will provide direct services to many unemployed workers across Canada. It is very important that the Department of Human Resources Development reform the unemployment insurance system.
I want to assure the hon. member and all her colleagues that the reason behind the important changes resulting from the reform was to provide more effective and advanced services to the unemployed, and particularly to foster co-operation among all stakeholders, including unions, business people, provinces and municipalities, in order to fight unemployment and poverty.
