It is important that we do not automatically extend programs without taking a close look at the information available.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"10892\" data-originallang=\"en\"> I want to make clear that at this point we are carefully examining the issues involved, listening to the views of those concerned. Whatever the decision is with regard to the increased weeks of EI benefits pilot project, the government's long term priority is helping Canadians participate in the labour market. We want to ensure that all Canadians get the best value for their dollars, that any programs we invest in really do help the people who need it.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"10893\" data-originallang=\"en\">We want to ensure that we have the proper balance. This is why we are taking the time we need. We need to make an informed decision.</p>",
