Mr. Speaker, when one looks at the Reform Party's suggestion, it would appear it is going to pay for its premium reduction by eliminating a great deal of the benefit that arises from the program.
These are the questions one should really address: Is it true that the Reform Party would eliminate sickness benefits? Is it true that the Reform Party would eliminate maternity benefits? Is it true that what the Reform Party would do with unemployment insurance is to put Canadians out on their own and effectively pay for that premium cut by cutting off those Canadians who are most in need of the help it provides?
