Mr. Speaker, we have looked very carefully at this situation. Most of the cheques that my department is delivering are going through the post. We made an agreement last night with Canada Post which the postmen have accepted to deliver all delayed cheques today and tomorrow in case there is no agreement. That has been done.
As a responsible government and as a responsible department this is what we have done because of the possibility of a strike. We have organized 400 sites across the country for distribution in case of such a strike.
