Statement made on 05 November 2009 by Senator Jean Lapointe (retired)
Hon. Jean Lapointe:
Honourable senators, my question is for the Leader of the Government in the Senate. Are she and the Minister of Heritage, James Moore, aware that the employees of the largest museums in the country, the Canadian Museum of Civilization, and the Canadian War Museum have been on strike since September 21, 2009, that is, for the past seven weeks? Would they not agree that this has gone on long enough, and that the minister should assume his responsibilities and exercise his influence to force the parties back to the bargaining table?
