Mr. Speaker, women also face inequalities when it comes to employment insurance.
A study from the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives showed that two out of three women who contribute to EI do not receive benefits when they lose their job. This study recommended that the number of hours needed to qualify for benefits be changed to 360 hours in the last 52 weeks.
Will the minister listen to this suggestion and show that she truly cares about the best interests of women?
