Mr. Speaker, the report the Prime Minister is referring to reflects the opinion of the majority of provinces. Quebec has always insisted on having control over social policies and their integration and making its own decisions in that regard.
By trying to take over-that is what this is-all social programs in Canada and trying to impose national standards as it did in the areas of manpower, forestry and mining, to name but a few, is the Prime Minister not using a sleight of hand to in fact centralize behind our backs by keeping all real decision making powers in his hands?
