Hon. Catherine S. Callbeck:

Honourable senators, my question is for the Leader of the Government in the Senate. The government's proposal to assist long-tenured workers does absolutely nothing for seasonal workers.

Does the Leader of the Government in the Senate realize that the government's initiative for long-tenured workers does not include seasonal workers?
