Mr. Speaker, let me quote the Minister of HRDC in the House yesterday.
--it is only in cases of fraud when EI claimants are required to pay back more than what they have taken.
This statement is not correct. In saying it, the minister called my constituent, Cher Kinamore, and thousands of other EI claimants over the last five years, fraud artists.
I would like to know if the minister would be willing to step outside this Chamber and call my constituent and thousands like her fraud artists, or perhaps she would like to have a good look in the mirror and put a better perspective on the issue.
