Madam Speaker, I know the hon. member was sitting in his seat and listening attentively a couple of minutes ago when the minister emphasized that at the finance ministers meeting there was an agreement on the outline of those taxes that could be covered under this legislation.
I would ask to be shown anywhere where they emphatically say “We do not want to have discussion. We want this process to stop. We are not engaged”.
The reality is even though the Government of Quebec has a different system than the rest of Canada in its revenue collection, there is day to day co-operation. There is day to day co-operation, consultation and communication between the systems of tax and revenue collection. That is why we do work together and will continue to work together and seek more co-operation. We will not halt the potential for more co-operation because that would not be in the best interests of Canadians.
