Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister has repeatedly said that he does not want to reopen constitutional issues at this time and that the priority of his government is jobs and economic growth. Yet yesterday he and other Liberal members were repeatedly drawn into
heated exchanges with Bloc members on the constitutional future of Quebec.
There are millions of Canadians including Quebecers who want Parliament to focus on deficit reduction, jobs and preserving social services.
Is the Prime Minister abandoning his commitment to stay out of the constitutional swamp or is it still his resolve to stick to economic, fiscal and social priorities?
