Mr. Speaker, this weekend thousands of passionate grassroots Canadians rallied to demand some action on Canadian unity. They want the federal government to drive the unity issue to resolution now before there is another crisis and they want and deserve more than lip service from the Prime Minister.
What Canadians expect from the government are some signs of willingness to change, even if it breaks their Liberal hearts to have a smaller federal role in a decentralized but unified country. People realize that the status quo is not working and they want to see a fresh start.
After last year's referendum, the Prime Minister struck a cabinet committee to come up with the answers on national unity. Is this national unity committee still meeting? When can we expect to see the report for the Canadian people?
