Mr. Speaker, on the eve of Quebec's fête nationale, the cabinet will not be meeting in Ottawa, but in Quebec City, Quebeckers' national capital. With that decision, the Prime Minister seems to recognize the importance of Quebeckers' national holiday. If Quebeckers have a national holiday, it is certainly because they form a nation and see themselves as a nation.
Are we to understand that the Prime Minister is taking the trouble to travel with his cabinet for our national holiday because he recognizes that Quebeckers form a nation in their own right?
