Mr. Speaker, we know the surplus in the EI fund could pay tuition for a five year program for three million students in the country. One can imagine what that could do for the workforce.
The Auditor General remarks that the current surplus in the EI account is now three times the maximum reserve that the chief actuary of human resources development considers sufficient.
Accordingly, in my opinion, the government did not observe the intent of the Employment Insurance Act.
Why is the Prime Minister breaking the laws of the country?
