Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Human Resources Development.
Yesterday, the minister said, and I quote: "Had we reached an agreement based on humanitarian grounds, we might have been forced to reopen 2,000 other cases affecting an additional 70,000 people".
Are we to understand from the minister's remarks that the government has thus done an injustice to tens of thousands of retired people, and that it is now refusing to take responsibility for its actions?
