Mr. Speaker, what the government needs to be doing besides pushing the supreme court reference is to put forward a plan A, a positive initiative to make the federation work better for everyone, including Quebec.
The plan A for which there is the most support inside and outside Quebec is a rebalancing of the federal and provincial powers, not tinkering with the powers as the government has done, but fundamentally rebalancing for the 21st century.
When is the Prime Minister going to give as much effort to developing a plan A for rebalancing the powers as his government has put into this plan B supreme court reference?
