Mr. Speaker, that does not explain why the government stood up and blocked legislation that we brought in that would have fixed this problem.
The government's attack on workers goes on. Last week, the Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development, who once described EI as “lucrative”, defended her new quota system by describing the unemployed as “the bad guys”.
Law-abiding, out of work Canadians deserve better than to be treated like criminals. Why is the government cutting EI just when people need it the most?
