That's a great question. That's really one of our fundamental points throughout this process when Bill C-525 was brought forward. We've been consistently making the same argument and that is that under the Canada Labour Code, for our employers in particular, we do have a rich and successful history of the tripartite model for doing business, whereby government, management, and labour talk about issues. Nobody is delusional, thinking that we're always going to get along, but you quickly find areas of principle where you do agree, and then you sort out the ones on which you don't agree.
I think both employers and unions recognize that at the end of the day government is going to have to make some decisions when it makes legislative regulatory policy changes, but when we do it within the context of that tripartite model, it's proven to have worked. There are lots of examples of it, and even today we have various committees that meet various stakeholder groups where those three parties are around the table. It generally results in better solutions.
With respect to private members' bills, and I've heard this point several times, we don't think there's anything undemocratic about them. We just think that when it comes to the Canada Labour Code we have a process that does seem to work. It's worked for a number of years. It leads to better solutions where, at the very front end, we have discussions about key issues. They're not one-off issues, but we look at them in the totality of the entire code and what the implications might be for employers, government, and unions. Our experience has been that this leads to better outcomes.
