Mr. Chairman, I just want to make sure that I understand correctly. I'm speaking to Mr. Tremblay and to Mr. Moore. We were favourable to the amendment, but we now understand that first of all, there could be a cost to the provinces. During the federal-provincial-territorial meetings, the provinces declared that they were in favour of the status quo. Therefore, this amendment is not necessarily the result of consultations or of some desire expressed by the provinces. We are right to make this assertion.
Whatever displeases the provinces displeases us.
