Mr. Speaker, since 1986 the Auditor General of Canada has asked us to include the EI account in the government's consolidated revenue fund.
During all the years this fund was in the red, did the members opposite criticize Canadians for contributing to it? Now, there is a surplus. I know surpluses are something the members opposite cannot understand, cannot even imagine.
It is only natural now that all Canadians should benefit from this fund, which is serving them very well.
