Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good morning to both witnesses and thank you for being here.
Mr. Hancock, I'm going to continue on the same topic. Your union has directly experienced the consequences of the use of section 107 in the dispute involving Air Canada flight attendants. The government intervened to end the strike and impose mandatory arbitration.
You're calling for the repeal of that section. Instead of repealing it, the government is explicitly enshrining ministerial authority to end a legal strike in Bill C‑39.
Why is it essential for you to repeal section 107? Also, what would be the consequences of maintaining the application of section 107 on the right to strike and collective bargaining? I imagine the proposed amendments do not address your concerns at all.
