The NFU also recommends that changes to the EI program be implemented to enable self-employed persons, including farmers, to participate meaningfully in the program. The NFU further recommends that net farm income rather than gross farm income be one of the criteria that are used in the calculation to determine the eligibility of a farmer's claim for EI. I respectfully submit this.
Enfin, le SNC recommande que l'un des critères utilisés dans le calcul servant à déterminer l'admissibilité d'un agriculteur à l'AE soit le revenu agricole net plutôt que le revenu agricole brut.
