Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Human Resources Development. The minister's answers to questions from the Official Opposition and to claims from students, who held a demonstration yesterday on Parliament Hill, only confirmed our greatest fear, namely that he will increase the burden of students through additional loans of $10 billion, over a ten-year period. That money will be available because of cuts in transfer payments to provinces for post-secondary education.
Will the minister admit that the statement he made yesterday confirms his intention to transfer $10 billion from the federal debt to the students?
