Mr. Speaker, it seems that the Liberals just cannot take no for an answer. Canadians said no to Meech Lake and to Charlottetown. The Canadian people continue to say no to distinct society and the special status that it would confer on only one province in this country.
There are reports that the Quebec provincial government and the federal government are working behind the scenes to secure the approval of enough provinces to entrench the distinct society clause in the Constitution.
I ask the Prime Minister does the federal government endorse the constitutional position outlined over the weekend by Quebec Liberal leader Daniel Johnson, yes or no?
