[ Inaudible—Editor] claim Quebec's jurisdiction, I advise you to go see the minister concerned to ask her to come and show me that an exception is justified. If it's appropriate to grant one to Quebec, I'm prepared to do so, but this is a shared jurisdiction. I'm prepared to make exceptions if it's justified, but at the same time, we're dealing with a Quebec government that wants to bring down the number of people who are in Quebec temporarily. Choices will have to be made, but the first step is to come and see me. This is important for people working in health care and for those seeking care.
