Mr. Topp, I am moved by your optimism, but I do not get the sense that we are going to make much progress right now or in the near future, since it seems that voters will be sticking to the same path for some time to come: electing small minority governments.
In Quebec, the 10 or 12 most recent polls show a strong tendency to elect a majority of Bloc Québécois members, and that means—unless the Conservative government's bill does not pass, reducing Quebec's weight—that we should expect to see minority governments.
Do you not find that having successive minority governments disrupts long-standing rules? It forces us to think, to get used to alliances or coalitions, to be open to new ways of governing. We need to face the new dynamic that has been decided by the people, by voters.
