Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for Québec for her very enlightening speech on the Conservative government's choices.
The previous question was about sending people to prison and not allocating any resources to provide the basic services they need.
In Canada, the government has been passing so-called tough-on-crime bills to send more people to prison. The provinces often end up footing the bill, and there are now more people in provincial prisons.
I do not know what my colleague thinks about this, but the government makes decisions without consulting the provinces, although that is a very important part of every decision, and without regard for who will be footing the bill.
