Mr. Speaker, let us not get all worked up. It is not even me, it is Jean Lapierre again who said—
Paul Arcand asked him “Then, why are the Péquistes upset?” And Lapierre replied “Because it is a nice way to be told no and, I am telling you, and I am telling people, do not fall for this trick”.
For example, when Mr. Bouchard went to Washington, did he not ask to meet with President Clinton?
We are helping the Government of Quebec. They will meet with all the economic ministers they want to. The only thing they want is to be told no and feel a little more humiliated.
