Madam Speaker, I realize the clock has run out, but I would just like to suggest to the hon. gentleman, our colleague across the floor, that the federal contribution to social security programs in Quebec is $14.6 billion.
Quebec has a huge deficit. Canada has a huge deficit. We are now providing 28 per cent of all national funds for the work that has to be done in Quebec and that with these funds, with which I have no quarrel, we will be able to fix the situation so that our young people can find their niche in tomorrow's society.
It is irrelevant to ask today who did what about the deficit. We are talking about young people and the fact that they want to be able to eat and earn a living and get proper training for the future.
