Mr. Speaker, if the Leader of the Opposition were really interested in Kingston's francophone students, he would have taken the time to learn the reasons why city council decided to oppose the relocation of the school. The proposed site was only steps away from a dangerous toxic waste treatment site and Kingston city council did not want students going to school there if their health would be endangered. The decision had nothing to do with the fact that they were francophones, but rather with the fact that the proposed location was close to a toxic waste site.
In the House of Commons on May 30th, 1994. See this statement in context.
