Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to our guests, the invaluable witnesses who are before us today.
I come from a political party that has always been concerned with workers' rights. In our discussions and negotiations with this minority government and in the supply and confidence agreement that we've signed and that is public, we've said that this is a major win for us. However, that troubles some people.
Representatives of management associations came to see us last week and told us that there weren't enough exceptions in the bill and that they would completely discard it if they could. That clearly shows the path some groups have taken.
Mr. Lapierre, I'd just like to say that the Océan remorquage case is quite clear. I had a chance to meet your members.
I admit it was difficult and frustrating to see their livelihood being stolen from them by people who were being paid more than what they were seeking at the bargaining table. I mention that example, but there'll be others.
How do you think an anti-scab law could restore the balance between the parties at the bargaining table?
