Mr. Blaikie, I know how passionate you and others are when dealing with this. This was a long-simmering dispute. I can understand all of that. I can understand why the questions you were posing to the minister are such that it may tend to inflame the emotions, again, of members of this committee or members of the union.
However, all I'm suggesting here, sir—and to the minister—is that we continue to do what we always do at committee and treat all of our witnesses with respect. The questions should be direct, and they should be aggressive, at times, if you feel that they should be posed in such a manner, and I would also ask the minister to answer direct questions with direct answers, if possible, but I'd like to keep this on a level that is respectful of both the minister and the witnesses along with her.
Mr. Blaikie, you have about two and a half minutes left.
