Mr. Speaker, excuses do not cut it for the quarter of a million people who have been thrown out of work since the last election. When these unemployed workers turn to the government's job bank website to get a bit of help and maybe a bit of hope, what do they get? They log on and they are greeted by a message saying there are technical difficulties. Well, no kidding. How can we have any confidence in a website about the slush fund when the government cannot even get its job bank website working?
