With all due respect, I think that you have not answered the question. We are not going back to the days when the Liberals were in power. Today, we have a bill, Bill C-257, and a Conservative government. This bill is now being debated in this committee. My question is clear.
When I think of the vulnerable position in which employers place themselves vis-à-vis the unions as they refuse to negotiate essential services, I feel that they are showing a predisposition to mistrusting their own employees and to doubting the success that is possible in establishing good labour relations. Would it not be an advantage for employers to negotiate essential services instead of relying on replacement workers? And if there is no advantage for them, why is that? We still do not understand.
