Mr. Speaker, Quebec's pharmaceutical industry exists thanks to federal programs. The aerospace industry exists thanks to federal programs. As for the computer industry as a whole, Quebec entrepreneurs are successful in these sectors thanks to federal programs.
If we look at R and D grants, Quebec gets over 40 per cent thanks to federal programs. The truth is that the federal government has built on the enormous capabilities of our entrepreneurs and, instead of criticizing us, the hon. member should take pride in their success.
