Mr. Speaker, I will be brief. I am quite pleased with the comment that my colleague just made. He is ready to transfer programs to the provincial governments. They are analyzing them and want to disperse them either to the provincial or to the municipal level.
That is what Quebec has been asking for for a long time; that is what Quebec has been telling you for a long time, to eliminate duplication and return jurisdiction to Quebec and also to the other provinces. We quite agree on that.
Except that this government is not facing up to its responsibilities. Why? Because it is not making any decisions in this area. It is indecisive. Make some decisions and tell us what field of jurisdiction you want to return to Quebec and to the other provinces. That is what we want to do here.
The Liberal government should table a list of programs where overlapping is very expensive so that these programs can be administered directly by the provinces concerned. Do it and table it so that we can discuss it as soon as possible. Quebec could save $3.3 billion as a result. That is one reason we want a sovereign country.
