Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the comments by my colleague.
Clearly, part of the agreement will take care of the pensions, but it also protects Canadian taxpayers from increased tax liabilities. The legislation also includes guiding principles on providing direction to the arbitrator such as the desire of the government to see no increase in the unfunded portion of the Canada Post pension plan.
Our government's desire is to ensure that Canadian taxpayers are not left with the bill for Canada Post's pension plan.
