Mr. Speaker, in May, a parliamentary committee unanimously proposed improvements to the employment insurance system.
Yesterday, the government responded, saying that it would wait until the end of the period set by regulation to give its answer.
Today, in the face of the obvious signs of an economic slowdown and in view of the urgency of action, will the Minister of Human Resources Development acknowledge that the time has come to implement these unanimous recommendations by the committee in order to help workers who have been the victims of the recent layoffs?
