Mr. Speaker, Quebecers face a fundamental choice, the choice of the kind of society they want. I think they have the right to know what kind of society this government has in mind.
And among other things, I want to ask the Prime Minister whether we are to understand-and why not admit it, everyone knows-that the minister wanted to carry out the reform and that it was constantly postponed because of the referendum in Quebec. Why will the Prime Minister not admit that the reason for these successive postponements is that the government made the deliberate decision to put off announcing the dramatic cuts that will be inflicted on Quebec's unemployed because of the referendum?
