Mr. Speaker, the government is invoking the social union agreement to justify its forays into provincial jurisdictions.
It has announced that it will establish a national children's agenda, evaluate the effectiveness of social programs, and eliminate unjustified barriers to the mobility of citizens and students. Let us not forget, however, that this agreement was never signed by Quebec.
Are we to understand that the government intends to impose these new programs without Quebec's consent, once again demonstrating the one-sided nature of its flexible federalism?
