Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for his question. We have to recall that it was the Conservative government which managed to transfer these tax points to the provinces and essentially created the situation where the federal government lost control of federal spending in health care. That is very sad.
As far as employment insurance is concerned, we are talking about apples and oranges, as the member well knows, because we are talking about a situation in which the demand on the employment insurance fund is met by the money that is there.
I do not know what the member actually means. Would he increase the amount? Perhaps he is suggesting that we should cut employment insurance premiums. Perhaps that is what he is driving at. I am not sure, but I know it is not the same situation whatsoever.
