Mr. Speaker, my colleague highlighted the fact that the Conservatives promised, in their 2011 platform, not to take part of the money already in the employment insurance fund and transfer it to another benefit, but to take the money from the general fund. They must not dip into the employment insurance fund yet again.
The Conservatives estimate this new benefit, which we support, at $30 million a year. I would like to hear my colleague's comments on that.
Does she think the government intended to keep its promises by using the money of the employees and employers who contributed to this fund?
