Mr. Speaker, Ottawa wants to create universal child care, like the program we created in Quebec 25 years ago. Obviously, Quebec wants to receive its share of the funding with no stings attached.
Last week, the Prime Minister said he would impose further improvements on Quebec's program. Yesterday on Tout le monde en parle, he said that the agreement would be “pretty much unconditional”.
“Pretty much unconditional” is pretty much a useless thing to say that sets the stage for an equally useless fight.
Why not simply transfer the money with no strings attached?
