She spent quite a bit of time talking about EI premiums. There is always a discussion among Canadians as to whether it was actually $57 billion or $58 billion that the previous Liberal government took out of the EI fund when it was in power.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3447162\" data-originallang=\"en\">I wonder if she could clarify that number. Was it $58 billion or $57 billion? I am confused.</p>",

Elle a longuement parl\u00e9 des cotisations \u00e0 l'assurance-emploi. Je lui rappelle que les Canadiens se demandent toujours si c'est 57 ou 58 milliards de dollars que le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent a vol\u00e9s dans la caisse d'assurance-emploi. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3447162\" data-originallang=\"en\">La d\u00e9put\u00e9e pourrait-elle nous \u00e9clairer? \u00c9tait-ce 57 ou 58 milliards de dollars? Je me le demande.</p>"
