I don't know if I'm in debate, questioning, consideration, or what. I listened to Ms. Davies' point. My concern is the same legal opinion, which carries some weight with me, that was referenced by Mr. Hiebert. I agree that we're not debating section 87.4, but this says:
Section 87.4 of the Canada Labour Code was drafted and intended to be applied in a specified legislative context; that is, employers being free to employ replacement workers in the form of temporary employees, contractors, managers and/or non-union employees in order to perform struck work and thereby ensure that essential services were continued. Section 87.4 was not intended to be applied in a context where an employer has no ability to perform any struck work and, hence, no ability to keep essential services operational.
Here's my issue. Our legislative clerk has indicated that we can't adjust section 87.4--that's out of the purview of this--but my concern is that we're affecting section 87.4 by changing part of the rest of the first part of the Canada Labour Code. That's where I'm trying to get an answer on this, and I don't have it yet.
