Mr. Speaker, I would ask the member to check his allegations before saying such things. We know that it is 60%. We are therefore not budging and we will not bow down before the Conservative government, as other governments in Quebec are doing. We will stand up for ourselves. We are asking for 60%, we are sticking to it, and we will not move an inch on this issue.
Now, he asked another question: how will we ensure that this is distributed equitably? The other provinces may have something different to say. We cannot stick our heads in the sand. The automobile industry is in Ontario, and you do not hear us complaining like this. The automobile industry is there, and all the money from Ottawa goes to Ontario.
For years, we have been saying that the bulk of the aerospace industry is in Quebec. So, we would like our fair share in Quebec.
Another thing. Let it not be forgotten that we represent 25% of the population. So who is paying for one quarter of this $13 billion contract?
