The Minister of Labour, Jean-Pierre Blackburn, who tabled the Ways and Means motion (mentioned above) in December 2006 is claiming the Bloc does not support the bill and, therefore, he cannot proceed. Members of the Bloc have risen repeatedly in the House of Commons to propose the amendment and attempt to have the bill tabled (as have Liberals, and other members of the Conservative party) but the Minister of Labour refuses to accept it. Look for yourself at the debates on the parliamentary webs (http://www.parl.gc.ca/common/index.asp?Language=E - see House of Commons latest debates - ) then contact your MLA to let him/her know your stance and ask them to put pressure on the Minister of Labour to table this bill!
