Mr. Speaker, all of us in the Outaouais region and throughout Quebec and Canada are thrilled that this dispute has been settled after nearly a year. The workers and their families, some 210 families in our region, suffered during the lockout.
I obviously want to thank the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service for its very active involvement. This has been a top priority for me and my colleagues since the beginning of my mandate.
Today, we are relieved that this lockout and labour dispute has been settled.
