Mr. Speaker, the hon. member ought to look at the government's record for the past several years.
When the previous government came in, its intention was to raise the employment insurance contribution rate to $3.30. We froze it at $3.07. Every year since then, we have decreased employment insurance contributions. Last year, we brought them down 20 cents. As well, we did away with employment insurance contributions for those under the age of 25.
