Mr. Chairman, I think there is a big difference with this bill. This bill provides for a back to work order which we agree with and do not wish to amend. What is proposed here is a mediation process as a result of the pressure tactics used by the union or a lockout declared by management, and we agree with a back-to-work legislation.
What we say, however, is that it would be much better for the mediator to do his or her job in a setting different from that which existed before the pressure tactics, the lockout and the special back-to-work legislation. This bill contains all the elements needed for the parties to adopt more realistic attitudes, which was not the case when an investigation commissioner was chosen even before any pressure tactics was used by the parties, something they will no longer be able to do after this bill is passed.
