Thank you.

Clause 246 includes changes to part 1 of the Canada Labour Code. It would extend the equal remuneration protection to all federally regulated employees covered by a collective agreement in the air transportation sector who are working at airports. As well, it would also provide a regulation-making authority to extend this provision to other industries.
