Mr. Speaker, I want to commend my colleague, the Minister of Labour, for her words today. I also want to commend her for her actions, particularly with respect to extending the wage earner protection program, something we have worked on in this House, on both sides, for over five years. That is an excellent initiative.
I want to ask her a short question with respect to the role of the federal mediation and conciliation services. Budget 2011 allocates $1 million over two years. Could she expand on that in her remarks?
