Mr. Speaker, there is no harrassment. The employees are covered by a collective agreement, and, in a department with 20,000 employees, we will find work for them elsewhere.
Personally, I did not like the tone of the memo. I admit it, I did not like it at all. But there is no harrassment, as they are claiming on the other side of the House.
We should also point out the excellent work done by Human Resources Development personnel in helping thousands and thousands of workers integrate into the labour market. An additional 87,000 workers joined the labour market last month, and this figure includes 44,000 young people. This is what the employment insurance reform is about as well. This is our political philosophy. This is how we move people out of poverty—through employment.
