Canada Post Corporation has been calling for this flexibility for some time, and so have unions because it's vital to Canada Post revenues, which are essential if the corporation is to get to some form of financial stability or profitability, or at least a break-even point. That was actually one of the elements in Commissioner Kaplan's report that the union and Canada Post management agree on. I believe it's crucial to implement this measure.
I want to mention in passing that there have been positive developments since the last time I appeared before the committee because the union and the corporation have reached an agreement. The agreement is yet to be ratified, but the parties had not reached agreement in a long time. That's a very positive step because it delivers predictability and stability for Canada Post, two elements that were clearly lacking at Canada Post and accelerated the loss of business volume.
