Mr. Speaker, the chief actuary said that EI premiums could be cut to $2.05 and still provide for a rainy day fund. But, no, the Minister of Finance will stop at $2.40. He is still determined to rip off Canadian workers and businesses by about $6 billion a year.
Why will the finance minister not listen to the government's chief actuary, reduce EI premiums to $2.05 and give every Canadian family about an $800 a year tax break to put back into the economy?
