Mr. Speaker, my colleague is always very thoughtful, careful and professional.
I would like her, as the Bloc Québécois critic for labour, to say a few words about the fact that the government, in its original proposal, did not exempt the Canada Labour Code from the application of the bill. The work of the member for Pierre-Boucher—Les Patriotes—Verchères, with the support of my colleague from Côte-Nord—Kawawachikamach—Nitassinan, ensured that an amendment was proposed to exclude the Canada Labour Code from the bill.
According to her, why did the government keep it in and wait for us to propose an amendment?
Why did it not occur to the government that it should not touch this legislation?
