Madam Speaker, in his speech, my colleague pointed out that taxpayers will be paying about $50 more into the EI system. Personally, I do not mind paying more to help others when it fulfills a need. However, I see two problems when people are paying more but the system does not work and has yet to be improved, despite the promises made. Even now, only 40% of people who lose their jobs qualify for EI. Could my colleague talk about this sort of dichotomy that exists when contributions increase but services do not?
