Mr. Speaker, last night the leader of the Bloc Quebecois said again that federalism cannot change, will not change, et cetera. The great
rebuttal to that is to demonstrate more clearly than heretofore that Canada is going to change for the better through a no vote on October 30.
One of the major ways in which Canada can change without constitutional battles is through simple reforms to our federal institutions. Parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Bank of Canada can all be made more representative and accountable to every region and citizen in the country without reopening the Constitution.
My question is for the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs. Is this federal government open to changing these federal institutions-Parliament, the Supreme Court, the Bank of Canada-to make them simply more accountable and representative to every region and citizen in the country?
