Mr. Speaker, I will answer by saying that right now Quebec does not receive the same percentage of taxes that it pays to the federal government. Indeed, we account for 25 per cent of the Canadian population, but barely 21 per cent of the taxes we pay is returned to us. Right there you have an injustice which would be eliminated with a sovereign Quebec.
