No matter how you start your family, all new parents should have the time to welcome their child into their new home. Extending Employment Insurance benefits to adoptive parents is one of the ways #FES2023 is making life more affordable for Canadians.

Adoptive and intended parents are owed more than broken promises from the Liberal Government. C-318 is commonsense legislation that will give them the time they need and deserve with their child. #timetoattach

A thoughtful piece by a Chinese Adoptee. "As I grew older, it became more common for ppl to ask how lucky I felt to be adopted... and that I should be grateful for my [adoptive] parents’ "generosity." I have always belonged to an in-between place." rb.gy/8ntvt

#C318 provides parity in our parental benefits system. It was wonderful to have so many families present for yesterday’s debate who know firsthand just how meaningful an additional 15-week EI benefit will be for adoptive and intended parents.

Today, I introduced my private member’s bill, c-318, that proposes a new 15-week EI benefit for adoptive and intended parents to ensure greater parity in the parental benefits landscape. All families are deserving of equal access to parental leave benefits. #c318
