Mr. Speaker, the health minister was asked if the anti-Ontario position was the formal position of the Government of Canada and he said it was the informal position. Just exactly what does that mean?
Will the federal government informally try to derail Ontario initiatives? Will it informally overcharge it for its EI fund? Or, perhaps today it will informally sabotage its efforts to build a social union.
Does the health minister really think it is right to use government resources and his influence to defeat the Ontario government's initiatives on national unity?
