Mr. Speaker, it is important to understand this: The Liberals allowed unfettered numbers of bogus asylum claims to happen across the country, it placed a burden on provincial governments without any sort of consultation, particularly in health care and other social welfare programs across the board.
Therefore, it is reasonable for provinces to put restrictions and limitations on social services. There is not unlimited money. Resources have to be prioritized. In this instance, this is why Conservatives affirm that, should the Government of Quebec choose to do so, it is right, in this case specifically, to use the notwithstanding clause.
