Replying to Steeve Lavoie (Liberal)
“Mr. Speaker, I found my colleague’s speech very interesting and encouraging when it comes to Bill C‑39. I think he agrees with the spirit of Bill C‑39, which is to fast-track projects. He also wondered about the time limits. The bill is long—over 250 pages—but the information on time limits and analyses is there. From his speech, I understand that he wants to fast-track things and make them work. He wants us to work together with the unions to make projects move forward and avoid additional delays. I would like to know one thing: Will he vote in favour of the bill so that we can move forward and fast-track construction?”

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 7 wordswe heard these promises with Bill C-5.1Partly on point Positioning · 45 wordsIf I were a policeman and saw the Liberal bus in front of me going at the speed the Liberals are moving rather than the speed they claimed it would move at, I would pull it over and give them a ticket for impeding traffic.Positioning Claims · 11 wordsThe Liberals have not moved at the speeds they promised us.Partly on point Procedure · 4 wordsThat is the challenge.Procedure Promise · 47 wordsIf the Liberals amend the things that need to be amended and there is a one-year timeline or deadline, yes, we will support it, provided they also have the provisions that labour needs in order to ensure they have the right to strike when they need to. Reasoning · 43 wordsIt is not something workers want to do willy-nilly. They do not want to go into a work stoppage because they feel like somebody looked at them wrong. It is their last option to gain leverage to do what they need to do.
