Mr. Speaker, if there is not enough money for parental leave, as the Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development claims, has it ever occurred to her that the reason for that may be that the government misappropriated the surpluses in the EI fund and used them for other purposes? If the government's financial resources are insufficient, it is the government that is responsible.
I want to ask the minister this. How does she plan to cover all the necessary expenditures for the first year of the parental leave program?
