Allow me to just keep going on that one. In the past, the Conservative government has said over and over in a lot of this discussion, such as when I was trying to push for a national transit strategy....
The government seems to have the belief that we should not say what the provinces and municipalities should do. Apprenticeship programs shouldn't be a condition; a transit strategy shouldn't be a condition; it should be hands off, and let them decide. I keep hearing that.
Isn't there a contradiction between saying to let them decide, let them manage—because their level of government allows the municipalities to make a decision—and now, all of a sudden saying that perhaps there should be a condition? That doesn't seem to connect with the kind of ideology, or the belief, of the Conservatives, my friends across the way. Let me put it that way.
