Order. Good morning, everyone.
I would like to thank the witnesses very much for coming this morning. As you know, we're speaking to the study of the Public Sector Equitable Compensation Act. We have put together about four weeks in which to look at this issue.
Usually when witnesses come—I want to thank you for coming on what I know was relatively short notice—they have ten minutes to present. There are three groups here.
Those of you from the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union can decide among yourselves how you will do your ten minutes. Then we have the Canadian Labour Congress for ten minutes, followed by Marie-Thérèse Chicha, here as an individual, for ten minutes.
That will be 30 minutes, and after that there will be questioning from the members. That goes in a particular order. I would like to remind you and also remind the members that the timeline for questioning includes the time for the answers.
Thank you very much. I shall begin with Ms. Pageau.
