Mr. Speaker, I rise today to present a petition on behalf of thousands of Canadians who are concerned with the current bankruptcy act of the federal government.
In particular, the petitioners reference the differences between the provincial and federal legislation and have great concern that provincial legislation ensures pension plan deficiencies be the first super priority creditor, and they ask for that, while the federal does not. They point out that between the federal and provincial legislation, the provincial legislation is much more generous to employees.
