Mr. Speaker, even now, new moms who were let go from their jobs while on parental leave cannot collect employment insurance. When these women, who have just started their families, lose their income, Ottawa abandons them. The federal government has been refusing to fix this injustice for years. Six women took the government to court and won. Instead of fixing the problem, Ottawa appealed the decision. These are young mothers who have lost their jobs, and the government is dragging them to court. Why not help them instead?
