Almost 13 years ago, Professor Harry Arthurs conducted a very extensive review of the Canada Labour Code, part 3, and provided the government at that time with a very detailed recommendation in which both the Canadian Labour Congress and FETCO, my counterparts in the employers organization, participated in. Of course, Professor Arthurs' recommendations were not acted upon. The current government is to take a look at those recommendations and is in the process of proposing some changes to the Canada Labour Code, part 3. This is essential in the context of employment standards, hours of work, vacation pay, and how we deal with precarious employment, and the list goes on.
Our view would be, of course, it cover banks, railways, and all the major federal sector employers, both in the private sector, but also would apply to the public sector as it applies to the federal jurisdiction. We're hoping the government would outline very shortly their recommendations, but they've certainly been talking to the CLC, just as they have been discussing this with FETCO, the federal employees' council, to ensure, in regard to those recommendations, which are more than 13 years old, what provisions we would see as complementary to the improvements the government would like to make going forward.
