In this bill, we're proposing that Air Canada give its employees, in the areas of legislative authority of the Parliament of Canada which we want to restore, in official languages, for example, an equal opportunity and chance to work in those businesses. Mr. Pigeon can perhaps provide you with more information on the provisions of all the other acts of Parliament that are also entirely applicable in the circumstances. So when we talk about employment equity or other provisions of that kind — our colleague Mr. Blackburn is responsible, as you know, for the ministry of labour — the acts under his responsibility must also apply to people working for those businesses.
