Thank you, Madam Chair.
I have to tell you that I don't agree with you. You may have experience in terms of labour, but if you have checked, you will have noticed that I do too. I have never yet, in a collective bargaining situation, whether or not there is a strike, seen an employer announce in advance that it is ready to sign a contract, but is laying off 25% of the employees.
Ordinarily it is after the collective agreement is signed that people are not called back to work. Then it's a big surprise.
Do you not agree with me?
