Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Labour has known for two and a half weeks that Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers would be in a position for a strike or lockout this week. A work stoppage at Canada Post will hurt thousands of Canadian charities and businesses at their busiest time of the season.
Does the Minister of Labour intend to introduce pre-emptive back to work legislation today or does he have his heart set on shutting down Canada Post for Christmas?
