Mr. Speaker, the short answer is yes. We value our employees, the ones who will be leaving and the ones who will be remaining.
We certainly want to provide those who are leaving every opportunity to adjust back into the community. There will be early retirement provisions and early departure incentives that involve training and counselling. A wide range of services will be available to them which will help in terms of the adjustment.
They have been hard, dedicated workers for the people of this country. We want to make sure that we treat them fairly and reasonably.
