There was a question raised about the government's saying that their act was based on the Ontario act. The minister also insisted that it was based on the Manitoba act. It's created a great deal of confusion. With respect to Manitoba, there was some discussion about negotiations for pay equity occurring at the bargaining table. I wonder if you could clarify that. This was the position that the government insisted was the reality—that this was like the Manitoba act and they bargained for pay equity during collective agreements.
