On that same topic, it has been in the mandate letters of a couple of the ministers for a couple of years now to introduce fair wage policies. At one of the committee meetings, the minister commented that this was going to apply to every single government purchase, so it would apply to federal procurement as well. If a U.S. company wanted to bid on something, would they be considered discriminated against if they were not following our internal fair wage policy? This would of course leave us open to retaliation.
