Mr. Speaker, women have received a large proportion of these benefits. The system was changed specifically to help the very large number of women working part time, who in a system of weeks worked were not covered, whereas they are on the basis of hours worked.
Could the hon. member tell us that there is a family income supplement to help those with children and that 67% of the supplement goes to women on employment insurance? These measures in our employment insurance reform are very favourable to women.
