That says something about how much manufacturing means in the riding of St. Catharines and where things are going.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2023388\" data-originallang=\"en\">When she speaks about EI, and I realize she was not here when this budget passed, let us not forget that we passed the budget that moved the whole board of EI away from the way it was being run. It is run independently and has a minimum of $2 billion to ensure that what the Liberals did with EI reform would never happen again.</p>",

Cela en dit long sur l'importance de l'industrie manufacturi\u00e8re dans la circonscription de St. Catharines et sur l'avenir de ce secteur.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2023388\" data-originallang=\"en\">La d\u00e9put\u00e9e parle de l'assurance-emploi, et je me rends compte qu'elle n'\u00e9tait pas \u00e0 la Chambre lorsque ce budget a \u00e9t\u00e9 adopt\u00e9. Il ne faut pas oublier que nous avons adopt\u00e9 le budget qui a modifi\u00e9 la fa\u00e7on de g\u00e9rer le compte d'assurance-emploi. Il est g\u00e9r\u00e9 de fa\u00e7on ind\u00e9pendante et dispose d'un minimum de 2 milliards de dollars, pour emp\u00eacher qu'une r\u00e9forme de l'assurance-emploi comme celle entreprise par les lib\u00e9raux puisse se produire de nouveau.</p>"
