Mr. Speaker, the inference is that a member from Ontario is looking after regional development in Quebec.
This government claims to take care of the real problems of Canadians. Well, the minister responsible for regional development identified Montreal's real problems back in June 1992. He then referred to innovative policies for defence conversion and a general upgrading of the industrial infrastructure.
Since he has done nothing to stop unemployment in Montreal and has in fact done the exact opposite, why does he not implement a program for the economic renewal of Montreal, as he suggested in 1992?
