The best deals are always the ones that are made at the table. Our role is to uphold balanced labour relations that protect labour rights, maintain stability for employers and serve Canadians' broader interest. I know that there's a private member's bill working its way through the House of Commons, and I'm aware that this committee is doing a study on section 107. I look forward to seeing those results.
Let me be clear. Our government strongly supports free and fair collective bargaining. The best deals are the ones at the table. The reality is that 97% of disputes in federally regulated sectors are resolved without work stoppage. That speaks to the strength of the system. However, as you know, the Canada Labour Code does contain tools that could be used in exceptional circumstances where public interest is clearly at risk.
