Mr. Speaker, the reality is this. What the Liberal government is doing right now will directly undermine the ability of the workers, who have just started to fight for their rights and are in the midst of negotiations. Why would an employer negotiate with workers when the government has already signalled that it will bring in back-to-work legislation? It undermines the process, it undermines the rights of workers and it is the wrong thing to do.
We always need to find ways to support the process, support workers and their ability to come to a collective agreement, and to be able to negotiate freely. The role of the government is to support and encourage the resolution of these disputes through the process. The government should be supporting the process and workers, not by undermining it, which is exactly what the Liberal government is doing.
