Mr. Speaker, we have not cut the supply of funding. The same amount of money is going into funding. We have changed the manner in which we fund organizations to the benefit of the province of Quebec and the women's organizations there which are getting more money than they used to get. More groups are getting it. Some groups have availed themselves of three year funding which they never used to be able to do before.
In the House of Commons on March 8th, 1999. See this statement in context.
