Mr. Speaker, my question will be a very short one. I would like, however, to remind my hon. colleague from the Reform Party that what is going on here is not a debate on the place of religion in the schools. I can understand the concerns of those who want religious teaching to continue in the schools.
But in Bill 109 on public education, Minister Marois set out guarantees which protect the wishes of parents. My hon. colleague from the Reform Party seems to be concerned about parental desire to keep religious schools. These rights are guaranteed by the bill on public education and by section 41 of the Charter. It is a matter of administration.
I would like to provide a few clarifications, in order to disabuse those listening to us who may think we are discussing the place of religion. Denominational school boards are no longer adapted to the reality of what is going on in Quebec.
