First, let me say that yes, there are many provisions in this bill that have some complexities, and we have examined almost every aspect of it. That does not faze us in terms of what the bill is trying to do overall.
We've been waiting for decades for proactive pay equity legislation. We have identified three very specific things that can be addressed to make this bill even better than it is currently. Similarly, we have Harry Arthurs' recommendations finally seeing the light, along with the recommendations to improve the Canada Labour Code, part III, which has not amended since 1960.
We lay out one area that the government can fix, and it's a regulation that would need to be brought forth, but at the end of the day, this is not the first time this House has had to deal with omnibus legislation. We've been coming here for quite some time and we're very happy to comment on whatever legislation the government brings forward. We think this legislation will enhance gender equality in the federal jurisdiction, but equally we think the labour provision will set a new standard for the federal government in trying to get the provinces to follow suit.
