Gilles Vaillancourt

In Quebec, we can only deal with the provincial government. It's the law. Every municipality has to satisfy the law. I'm only telling you that this agreement was signed between the federal government and the provincial government. But at the end, who's paying for it? Who's living with it? It's not the federal government, and it's not the provincial government; the mayor and the council are living with it.
