Mr. Speaker, the biggest waste is Canadians who are unable to find a job because of the high level of unemployment created by the government.
I know Conservatives are busy doing damage control around the comments of the Minister of Finance, but in trying to fix one problem they are creating others.
The Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development gave us some insight on why members of her government are being so tight-lipped about these changes to EI. They said they want “to make sure the legislation gets through first“. They do not want to tell us until after the changes are passed. That is not accountability.
Will someone in the government please outline right now what constitutes suitable employment?
