Mr. Speaker, my question is for the public works minister.
For a few weeks now, the people of Quebec and Canada have been living under the threat of the next budget. People in need fear that it might be worse than the last one in the area of new social and co-op housing.
Given that since 1991, Quebec received only 19 per cent of the total amount earmarked for social housing, when it has a quarter of the population, which translates into a potential loss of $100 million per year, would the Minister of Public works commit himself to correcting this unfair situation for the neediest part of the Quebec population?
