Mr. Speaker, that famous speech is what I call the poisoned honey speech. There is no difference between the tactics the Conservative government is using and the tactics the Liberals used previously.
I mentioned several times in my speech that I found the Conservative government paternalistic, domineering and bent on assimilation. That speech by the Prime Minister was nothing but fine words. That is also clear from the answers to the questions we have asked. My hon. colleague herself asked questions about the labour code. She asked why there are still federal employees in Quebec who speak English. Why is everyone not required to speak French in Quebec? That would be a way of recognizing that Quebec is a distinct society.
