Yes, Mr. Speaker, I do think the time has come to see how we can negotiate with all the provinces of Canada in order to meet our commitment with respect to training programs. However, since the consensus the hon. member is referring to was confirmed in Quebec after my meeting with Mrs. Harel in Quebec City, I think it is important-once all the provinces are sitting down at the negotiating table with us-to have an offer reflecting the reality in Canada, in Quebec of course, but also elsewhere.
I hope that, with the co-operation of all our provincial colleagues responsible for manpower and employment, we can come to an agreement. But I can assure the hon. member that, once we are sitting down at the negotiating table, our intention is to have a very legitimate, clear, comprehensive, unambiguous offer so that we can enter into negotiations that will finally lead to the conclusion everyone is hoping for.
