I heard the remark from Mr. Adler about increasing corporate taxes, and Mr. Myers spoke about the connection between taxes and employment and investment.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2569860\" data-originallang=\"en\"> The Conservatives raised the EI tax rate, I believe, by something like 2.9% in 2011, and we're expecting something like a 5.6% increase in the EI rate in 2012. Do you think that will have an effect on employment and investment?</p>",
