Thank you, Madam Chair.
I'd like to thank the witnesses for being here with us.
Before asking my questions, I'd like to come back to what my colleague next to me said and tell him that we never wanted to force workers back to work during that strike. People blamed the government for not taking action.
I was surprised to see that my colleague was very upset and that he wanted to put on a show. That really surprised me.
My first question is for Mr. Rodgers.
In your opinion, how can we define what essential services are? From what I'm hearing, the economy is not an essential service.
