Mr. Speaker, at $550,000 per job, it is the Conservatives' proposal that makes no fiscal sense.
The PBO has shown the Conservatives' lack of transparency when it comes to EI. First they built up a surplus by cutting benefits while keeping premiums high. Then, like the Liberals before them, they dipped into the EI fund to use it for their own pet project, funding a tax credit that does not do what it is supposed to do.
When are the Conservatives going to quit playing games and get serious about helping unemployed Canadians?
