Thank you, Mr. Chair, and I want to thank our witnesses for being here.
Ms. Sairanen, your president, Mr. Dias, has previously been quoted in an article indicating that the proposed amendments would weaken health and safety laws. But we also just heard from labour officials on the amendments and they've indicated they would have absolutely no negative effect on the health and safety of workers. In fact, they've said that they had the potential to improve overall health and safety by giving officers the resources they require to do more proactive interventions in the workplace. They testified on that earlier today.
Do you agree that increasing the number of proactive interventions in the federally regulated workplace is a good thing?
