Mr. Speaker, I would like to point out something about EI that completely stunned and staggered me.
Employers must pay their share to the EI fund. All businesses must pay. It is not only the employees who pay. The Government of Quebec is an employer and, as such, its share exceeds the real needs, so it contributes to reducing the federal deficit to the tune of $200 million a year.
I would like my colleague to comment on that.
