Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for her speech. I think there may be one thing she forgot to talk about, and that is employment insurance. As we know, EI is an economic stabilizer during a recession, and we hear there may be a recession in 2023. I am worried for the people in my riding with respect to EI, because six out of 10 workers will not be eligible for EI. After seven years, the government still has not made a move. What does my colleague think the government should do to finally reform EI?

Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. We do agree on one thing: The economic statement is very disappointing. Consider vulnerable people. It is important to increase health transfers. Old age security also needs a boost to provide adequate support to people aged 65 and up. EI reform is another urgent matter. Does my colleague agree with the points I just raised?
