It was my first foray into a labour dispute, so I'm going to turn to Andrew in case he wants to add anything to make sure that I got it right.
At the beginning of a negotiation process, the union must decide on one of two routes. One is the conciliation strike route and the other is an arbitration route. Those are the two terms. The union chose the conciliation strike route. That was set out at the beginning. If an impasse is reached, then that's the road we go down versus going to arbitration.
I believe that at some point during the labour dispute there was a request to change that, but it was a little out of our hands to do that because that route had been chosen. When we discussed it with Treasury Board, we were to respect the choices the union had made at the outset.
