Mr. Speaker, the second petition is with regard to rural route mail couriers.
The petitioners would like to advise the House that rural route mail couriers often earn less than minimum wage and have working conditions which are very poor. They have not been allowed to collectively bargain, et cetera, and that the denial of basic rights helps Canada Post keep wages and working conditions at an unfair level with regard to these persons.
They therefore petition Parliament to repeal section 13(5) of the Canada Post Corporation Act.
