Mr. Speaker, when it comes to Kyoto there is one area of unanimous agreement. Ratification will bring about a change in the Canadian workforce. The NDP and the labour movement believe it can be a positive transition, but we must have a component in the implementation plan that will include adequate funding.
Given the substantial and maybe even illegal accumulation of surplus in the EI fund, will the Minister of Human Resources Development commit to a fund to a just transition program for displaced workers?
