Madam Speaker, there clearly will be significant challenges to face in terms of the Constitution.
When I was a member of provincial parliament, we looked at the Charlottetown accord, and realized that any time we take on changes to the Constitution, we face real difficulties.
The point is that Canadians have been very clear. This is an antiquated institution that many Canadians are just not willing to pay for any more.
We would consult with Canadians. We would talk to the provinces. We would find a way of doing it and making sure that the concerns of the people across this country were addressed, while respecting their very clear wish that we move into the 21st century and leave this less than sober second thought bunch behind.
