Mr. Speaker, it would be nice if we could connect the federal Conservatives with the provincial Conservatives in New Brunswick.
The minister's terrible reform is not helping anyone. No one has thanked her for cutting EI benefits. No one has thanked her for treating the unemployed like fraudsters. Even the Premier of New Brunswick blames the federal Conservatives for lost by-elections. They did not conduct an impact study nor did they hold any consultations.
It is a Conservative premier who is telling them that they are way out to lunch.
Will they listen to the provinces—
