Mr. Speaker, it is pretty hard to celebrate or praise a government whose budget is titled, “How low can you go?”
Ten years ago, it was recommended that the employment equity provisions for the federal worker contract program be strengthened through legislation, but now, instead of strengthening provisions, the Conservatives are using the budget bill to weaken them. Repealing progress on women's equality is becoming routine under the current government.
Does the Prime Minister think that employment equity is outdated?
