Mr. Speaker, I wish my hon. colleague would concentrate on what is happening and not on what might happen or what will happen. I understand the parties have met today. This government wants a collective agreement. We want an agreement that will be better for the people of Canada. We urge the parties to get back to the table to come up with a collective agreement that will be better for all.
In the House of Commons on November 17th, 1997. See this statement in context.
