First of all, I take some issue with my colleague Mr. Perkins's use of the phrase “foreign replacement workers”. We saw this during the discussion of the recent legislation, which is going to ban the use of scabs—or “replacement workers”, as the euphemism is. During the entire debate the Conservatives tried to make it about the use of foreign workers at battery and EV plants, which is a totally different topic—an important one nonetheless—but I am worried that the conflation is not an accident and that they're intentionally trying to muddy the waters on two very important issues, one dealing with the use of scabs during strikes and lockouts and the other with the use of foreign workers at these battery plants and electric vehicle factories.
