Mr. Speaker, we did commit to monitoring the situation. We committed that right at the beginning, with our economic action plan.
We are proud in this country to have an entrepreneurial class that is alive and well. These self-employed individuals, though, are the largest single group that are not eligible for employment insurance.
In our campaign promises of 2008, we committed to looking for ways to help support those individuals in troubled times. That is exactly what we are looking forward to doing.
