Mr. Chairman, I did not hear about any systematic objective measure being put forward for the workers who are complaining about this regressive job-killing tax. When is the government going back to the system that existed since the inception of the unemployment insurance system, namely, that the premiums would be lowered in order to limit the accumulation of funds. How big exactly does the minister think this fund should be allowed to grow?
In the House of Commons on March 21st, 1996. See this statement in context.
