Replying to Dan Albas (Conservative)
“Mr. Speaker, the member opposite used the term “workers” several times throughout her speech and also talked about the changes to collective bargaining, particularly the need to have a transparent process. I take it that the member is in favour of Bill C-39 and the changes to the Labour Code, particularly to section 107. Does the member believe that the government should be transparent and submit to the House, through the Minister of Justice, a charter statement outlining the impacts on the charter rights of the workers she says she wants to protect?”

Mr. Speaker, Procedure · 8 wordsmy colleague asked a question about section 107.Procedure Claims · 27 wordsI will note that 95% of collective agreements in federally regulated sectors are reached without a work stoppage.1 It is a very rare incident when this happens.Partly on point Reasoning · 21 wordsCertainly I am in favour of transparency and accountability, as is our government, which is why this legislation is being presented. Claims · 9 wordsAll of our legislation goes through rigorous charter testing.2 Reasoning · 50 wordsThe last thing the government wants is to be brought into court on a charter challenge. I would rely on the work that has been done by the drafters of the legislation and by the minister in making sure that all legislation is charter-compliant when it comes to the House.
