Thank you, Ms. Chabot.
The Canada Labour Code, as you know, has a provision that prevents the use of replacement workers. We were elected on the commitment to restore fair and balanced labour relations in Canada. We've delivered on that commitment.
We have respect and faith in the collective bargaining process. Ninety-seven per cent of all collective bargaining disputes under the Labour Code that were referred to the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service were resolved without a work stoppage. The best deals are certainly done at the table.
We respect and we have faith in the collective bargaining process. The Canada Labour Code, as I said, has that provision to prevent the use of replacement workers where their presence is in the workplace and it's intended to undermine a union's representational capacity. We firmly believe in the critical relationship between government, employer and workers. Right now, that's where things stand.
