moved for leave to introduce Bill C-378, An Act amending the Canada Labour Code (complaints by former employees). She said: Madam Speaker, I thank the member for Beauce for seconding my bill. I really appreciate it. I am very proud to introduce this bill, which will make life easier for former employees of organizations subject to the Canada Labour Code. With this bill, I hope that we will all agree to give former workers a little more time to file harassment complaints. The code currently provides for three months, which, in my opinion, is too short a time frame, whereas there is no limitation period for current employees. The bill, therefore, seeks to increase the time limit for former employees from three months to two years. Some will see that I am consistent in my approach, even though I changed this time frame when I was labour minister in the National Assembly.

Mr. Speaker, the delays in processing passport applications are completely unacceptable. People are saying that it is chaos at Service Canada. People are getting abominable service, and some have had to cancel their travel plans. However, this government has a ready-made solution: allow employees to return to work in person at the Service Canada passport offices. When does it plan to recall government employees?

Madam Speaker, the problems people are running into right now could have easily been foreseen. Telework works up to a certain point, but in the case of passport offices, employees need to be physically on site to provide proper service. We have all come back to work in person here on Parliament Hill. Why then are Service Canada employees not back at work on site?
