I'm not debating the second motion. I'm actually referring to it in my debate about the first motion.
The fact is that if this is something that's going to be pursued, it needs to be pursued through a proper procedure and with a more careful approach. Give the concept a really fair hearing. If we're going to approach something as important as this, it needs to be approached much more carefully.
Industries that are regulated in the federal jurisdiction are, by their very nature, important enough to be protected by federal regulations. Telecommunications, rail and air transportation, and our ports are too important to impact as significantly as they would be impacted by a flawed bill like this, by a bill that doesn't respect the balance that needs to be considered in all labour relations in the federal jurisdiction.
I think at this point what I'd like to do is introduce a motion that we adjourn this meeting and reconvene after the vote tonight.
I call the question on this motion.
