I will turn to page 6,
which deals with the national level and our relationship with the provinces and territories.
We've said that we operate on three levels. On the national level, we are exercising leadership and coordination with provinces and territories.
In the domain of labour, this is a very collaborative mode. Our minister meets with her counterparts in provinces and territories. We have working groups related to occupational health and safety and
labour standards.
Basically, in regard to what the federal government does in our own federal jurisdiction, our provincial and territorial counterparts are doing similar activities in theirs. There's a lot to be gained from the collaboration on labour that exists throughout Canada.
I'll give you a couple of examples. During the H1N1 pandemic, we were able collectively to call in the expertise around occupational health and safety and to collectively help the Public Health Agency of Canada get the word out about the ways of operating in the workplace that were safe and healthy for employees across Canada. Another example is that we implemented legislation to protect employment of reservists, which was done in close collaboration with provinces and territories. Another example that you don't have on our page, but which I'll mention, is the anti-violence regulations that were developed with provinces and territories and are also cited as a best practice, because all of us included employers and unions in that activity to come up with excellent anti-violence regulations.
