Mr. Speaker, as you may well know, and I know the hon. member knows, the strike action began just last February 20 and the employer is continuing to operate currently with the help of management personnel. However the union and the employer have indicated that grain and passenger services will not be affected by this work. In fact, they have begun to renegotiate.
It is our hope, as it is the hope of everybody else in the House, that those talks will bring about an amicable and worthwhile solution, and that the member opposite can put his outrage toward another serious event.
