Mr. Speaker, it would be an inappropriate strategy to have a national commitment to try to divide and conquer based on partisanship or region or geography or province.
The hon. member mentioned two provinces. It takes 10 provinces and 2 territories to make a national strategy. It takes many countries to make the family of nations. We have to move ensemble and that is clearly our intention.
I also plan to raise it later this month at the ministers' meeting on the environment, the CCME in Toronto. I am very pleased that for the first time in two years the minister of the environment for the province of Quebec will attend. I think that is an indication of how important issues on the environment are, not only for Canadians but also for Canadians living in the province of Quebec.
