Mr. Speaker, some claim the young should be able to draw more employment insurance benefits. We think young Canadians must have the opportunity to get a good education and hold good jobs. That is what we are trying to do on this side of the House.
Most young Canadians share these values with us. In fact, 143,000 new jobs were created for young people in 1998, the best performance in 20 years. That is what young people expect from good government.
