Mr. Chair, this democratic chamber, the House of Commons, voted in favour of a bill introduced by my colleague from Lévis—Lotbinière, from the Conservative Party. This bill would enable people with very serious illnesses to receive 52 weeks of employment insurance sickness benefits. The minister is offering six months, but in many cases, including when chemotherapy is needed, treatments can last from six months to two years. Is the minister telling these sick people that they have to go back to work?
