I would even call it a hypothetical approach. There are a lot of hypotheses in politics, as you know.
That said, hypothetically speaking, we can conclude that, if negotiations between Quebec and Ottawa on money transfers don't go well, Quebeckers may have to pay more to subsidize the pharmacare program in the other provinces.
I'm trying to understand the situation. Based on your analyses, in such a case, would Quebeckers be taken for a ride perhaps?
