Mr. Speaker, perhaps I should quote from the DBRS report-I will translate for you. According to DBRS, justice, equity and improved efficiency are the guiding principles of our reform, as far as transfers to the provinces are concerned. In other words, DBRS is saying that what we have done in fact is follow the principles of equity and good management.
In terms of Quebec or Ontario there are models they could follow.
For the first time since it has joined Canada, a Newfoundland finance minister has tabled a balanced budget. Other provinces could follow Newfoundland.
