Mr. Speaker, my question is for the minister responsible for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency.
The government decided to ignore the recommendations made by the members of the Standing Committee on Human Resources Development, which were supported by the Liberals, outlined in a report entitled “Beyond Bill C-2”, regarding changes to the employment insurance program.
Given this decision, what steps does ACOA intend to take in order to help people who will have to deal with the gap next January?
