Speaker, I’m happy to. It will be done just like how we delivered in Working for Workers Four Act. The NDP members opposite put forward a good private member’s bill, but you know what? If we’d accepted their private member’s bill on esophageal cancer for firefighters, the proposed retroactive coverage only applied after 20 years of service. We lowered that to 15 years, because we learned—we can sit down and get to a better result for families like the Bowman family.

Stop playing politics on this. Come to the table. Work for firefighters, as this Premier and this government have done, and let’s get it done. Stop with the cheap shots.
