Mr. Speaker, I will be brief. In any case, I have often heard the hon. member for Lachine-Lac-Saint-Louis make this kind of speech before, in the distant and not so distant past. All I can say that the Bloc Quebecois is here in force with 54 members, not because people were doing us a favour but thanks to our democratic system. If the hon. member has no respect for democracy or for the choice of Quebecers, then he is the problem. We feel quite comfortable.
In the House of Commons on February 10th, 1994. See this statement in context.
