Bill

Bill C-215, An Act to amend the Employment Insurance Act (illness, injury or quarantine)

Vote

Nay.

Rationale

The Government recommends opposing Bill C-215 because we have already extended EI sickness benefits from 15 to 26 weeks, in fulfillment of our 2019 Platform and Budget 2021. Bill C-215 is out of scope with one of the EI program’s objectives, which is to help keep workers connected to the labour force.

Passed.

Bill Status

Bill not proceeded with.
