moved for leave to introduce Bill C-463, An Act to amend the Employment Insurance Act (arm's length dealing).
Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to introduce a bill that would end discrimination against workers who do not deal with their employers at arm's length. This type of discrimination has been recognized by the Canadian Human Rights Commission. This legislation would be particularly helpful to our small and medium size businesses and especially to our family businesses.
This is one of the horrors that can be found in our current EI system.
