Mr. Speaker, the decisions that are taken by private corporations are decisions which reside within the capacity of those corporations.
That being said, I have said on numerous occasions that the downsizing which has taken place over the last two or three years in many cases is the equivalent of dumbsizing. In fact, it leads to lack of employee loyalty. It leads to absenteeism. I do not think it makes a lot of sense.
This is not to deal with this particular issue, but it certainly deals with a movement that we have seen throughout North America.
