That will give parents 12 months to spend at home with their children. It will be flexible. The family can decide whether it will be the mother or the father who stays at home. It will also include adoptive parents. This is a very significant undertaking on the part of this government. I am glad that the Bloc supports it.</p>", "fr": ""}, "url": "/debates/1999/10/18/jane-stewart-2/", "politician_url": "/politicians/4434/", "politician_membership_url": "/politicians/memberships/3155/", "procedural": false, "source_id": "", "h1": {"en": "Oral Question Period", "fr": ""}, "h2": {"en": "Employment Insurance", "fr": ""}, "document_url": "/debates/1999/10/18/", "related": {"document_speeches_url": "/speeches/?document=%2Fdebates%2F1999%2F10%2F18%2F"}}
