Thank you, Mr. Chair. I welcome all of the witnesses.
First of all, I want to say that I am going to be speaking French.
Madam Minister, may I thank you for your presence among us here today. I also thank you, as well as your colleagues, for the information you are sharing with us before this committee.
It goes without saying that this bill is important for the riding I represent, Marc-Aurèle-Fortin, and for the country as a whole. From coast to coast, the important role unions play in protecting the rights of Canadian workers touches all of us, directly or indirectly. And so I am going to ask you the following question.
Madam Minister, will Bill C-4 make it easier for employees to organize, and how will it affect union dues?
