Madam Speaker, I would like the hon. member across the floor to know that when Quebec is entirely on its own to administer the revenue and other taxes it collects from Quebeckers, particularly the employment insurance that will be repatriated to Quebec, we will certainly have a far more efficient and far more humane way of using that surplus. In Quebec, our attitude is far more social democratic than that of all the hon. members over there.
I see this as very positive, because in their present system they are penalizing workers by forcing them to go on welfare for no logical reason. If we ever administer the employment insurance fund, it will be done in a far more humane way.
We understand that some situations, or economic contexts, are difficult as far as employment is concerned. People may lose their jobs, but they then need training, they need help, and then, if they cannot manage to find work, they can be prepared for going on welfare. That is the humane way of doing things, and that is the way things will be done in a sovereign Quebec.
