In addition, just today, I think this afternoon, Senator Art Eggleton pres
ented a bill in the Senate that would give higher status to those on long-term disability, and in the Nortel case and also in other cases would guarantee that those individuals received the money and the medical treatmen
t to which they are entitled. We are hoping we don't know yet, but we are hoping given the catastroph
ic situation facing these individuals should ...[+++]this bill not pass, that this bill in the Senate might command all-party support.
En outre, aujourd'hui à peine, cet après-midi je pense, le sénateur Art Eggleton a présenté un projet de loi au Sénat qui améliorerait la situation des bénéficiaires d'assurance invalidité prolongée; de plus, dans le cas de Nortel, entre autres, ce projet de loi garantirait que ces personnes reçoivent l'argent et les traitements médicaux auxquels elles ont droit.
