What is the Quebec Parental Insurance Plan?

Since January 1, 2006, maternity, parental, and adoption benefits for residents of Quebec are administered by the province of Quebec. The Quebec Parental Insurance Plan (QPIP) replaces similar benefits that Quebec residents now receive under the Employment Insurance Act.
