Mr. Speaker, the past points the way to the future. Every year since we formed the government, we have reduced the premiums at budget time. We are looking at the problem at the moment.
We have made a lot of progress. As I was saying earlier, the employment insurance fund has been in a deficit position at times in the past and in a surplus position at others, and happily this is the case at the moment. This is why we have reduced employee premiums over the past five years from $3.30 to $2.70.
