Mr. Speaker, I can only answer that I will get back on track, because occasionally we have to return to serious matters. The secretary of state had a good laugh, but it is time to get back to serious business.
Our proposal is to submit all the data to an arbitration panel independent from the government, independent from the Bloc, independent from the Government of Quebec, for a full evaluation.
We believe that this is really unfair. All we are saying is that Quebec should be treated fairly in tax matters, in money matters. This should not be too hard to understand. Let us try this formula: three independent experts to study the question instead of relying on whatever members opposite have to say. We are getting a bit tired of arguing over numbers and of not making any headway in this matter after a year and three months.
