Madam Speaker, I have an excerpt from the report on Quebec's territorial integrity in the event that Quebec achieves sovereignty, which was tabled in May 1992 before the committee to examine matters relating to the accession of Québec to sovereignty, at the National Assembly of Quebec, and which states that the principle of legal continuity leads to the upholding of Quebec's territorial integrity.

Following the introduction of the bill denying Quebecers their fundamental rights, I ask for the unanimous consent of the House to table this document.

Madam Speaker, following the introduction, by the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs, of a bill denying the fundamental rights of Quebecers, I ask for the unanimous consent of the House to table a document that will enlighten the House.

It is a document on the Canadian dollar and Quebec's separation. To convince my colleagues across the way of the capital importance of this document, I will read a brief excerpt from it.

It states that “in the Parti Quebecois' bill on sovereignty, the currency having legal tender in Quebec shall remain the Canadian dollar”. This position has for a long time—

Madam Speaker, I have no doubt that I will get the unanimous consent of the House, primarily because I am seeking it.

Following the introduction, by the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs, of an unfair bill denying Quebecers their fundamental rights, I ask for—and I reiterate my request—the unanimous consent of the House to table a document that will enlighten our ignorant friends opposite.

It is an article published in November in La Tribune newspaper of Sherbrooke, in the nice riding of my colleague to my right, entitled “Dumont Qualifies the Initiative by Chrétien and his Gang as Sterile”.

Madam Speaker, I would like to inform the House that a rally to condemn Bill C-20 will be held tonight in Quebec City, the true national capital.

This rally will be held at the Ramada Inn, on rue de la Couronne, in the Saint-Roch section of Quebec City.
