Tom, I put this question to the minister yesterday, and I also found her response to this to be quite disappointing. I suggested that if the special mediator did a report that finds the employer was bargaining in bad faith, the use of section 107 would clearly be off the table to end a strike. She absolutely would not confirm that this is the case.
With these changes, an employer could be bargaining in bad faith, or not bargaining, and the minister could still use section 107 to end a strike. What do you think about that?
