Madam Speaker, that is an excellent question, and one of the best I have ever been asked.
As the hon. member is aware, the Bloc Quebecois is the strongest political force in Quebec, with 44% of the seats. Under the skilful leadership of the hon. member for Laurier—Sainte-Marie, who is, let us not forget, the most popular federal political leader in Quebec, we are going to continue to defend the interests of Quebec. As hon. members are well aware, the Liberal Party has always been characterized by a tradition of nepotism, patronage, mishandling of funds, and theft.
Not all Liberals are like that. There are some honest people in the Liberal Party. I would not like to be unparliamentary, but hon. members will agree. I believe that the best guarantee one can give to Quebecers is to have a political party like the Bloc Quebecois. This is important. We are wholly dedicated to defending the interests of Quebec, with clear funding.
The Bloc Quebecois is there so that no matter what the circumstances, whenever there is a bill, whenever there are policies to be evaluated, we can ensure that there is no competition with the allegiance to New Brunswick, to Saskatchewan, to British Columbia, because all of the Bloc Quebecois MPs, not being members of a traditional national party, are here to defend the interests of Quebecers.
I believe the best thing that can be hoped for is for Quebecers to continue to have confidence in the first federal political force in Quebec, that is the Bloc Quebecois, as they have in two elections already. I believe that it will continue to be present in the next election.
