Madam Speaker, Canadians want to the greatest extent possible that every Canadian vote should carry equal weight.
We will not do what the Liberals are doing, which is to pick winners and losers. They should be very clear about their intentions. The Liberals would take three seats away from Quebec, two seats away from Manitoba, two seats from Saskatchewan, and one seat from Nova Scotia. They would take seats away from Newfoundland and Labrador. That is unfair to those slower growing provinces.
We made a commitment that we would treat every province fairly, and that is what we are doing.
