Mr. Speaker, the problem is that $50 billion of past surpluses are being stolen by the government. That is why the workers are in court.
The Conservatives are shortchanging the fund by over $50 billion. The former chief actuary of Canada's employment insurance fund is raising the alarm. The Conservatives are going to force employers, and workers, in the future to pay higher premiums with wildly fluctuating rates. The fact is they are not likely to have enough to support working families when they are in need. That is the truth.
As compelling as it might be to blame the Liberals, the fact is the Prime Minister has to admit the fix is in.
