Mr. Speaker, what I do recognize is that when we talk about decentralizing there is a major difference between the position that has been constantly taken by members of the Reform Party and what I think many other Canadians are concerned about.
Canadians are telling us that we do not gain by transferring resources from one bureaucracy to another. We really should be transferring resources to people, to the private sector, to communities, to those who are best able to make decisions about how to get back to work.
The fundamental philosophy of the Liberal Party is to enhance the ability of individuals to make choices about their future. No more important choice can be made than to allow individuals to get back to work.
