Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleagues for allowing me to ask a question.
Yesterday morning, I was in Sept-Îles, in Quebec. I could have been in Rivière-du-Loup, or Rimouski, or elsewhere. Since the member would like so much to understand what is going on, I would like to ask him why he does not tell the House that it would be interesting if the committee could travel to listen to what Quebecers have to say.
I would like him to come and listen to what Quebecers have to say when they are being told that a question that basically focuses on a mandate to negotiate will not be allowed. I would also like him to come and listen to what Quebecers have to say when they read in the bill that a question that envisages economic or political arrangements with Canada will not be allowed either.
Does the member realize that this bill belittles the Quebec National Assembly, the only parliament where Quebecers have a majority and always will?
