Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs. Lately, some people have delighted in saying that relations between the provinces and the federal government, and specifically between Quebec and Ottawa, have broken down completely.
Can the minister advise us today on the status of federal-provincial relations and tell us what steps he intends to take to co-operate with the provinces and to reassure Quebecers that federalism is indeed alive and well?
