Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague has done an admirable job of breaking the update down into its various components.
Like the members of the Bloc Québécois, the Conservatives believe in a smaller but more effective federal government that respects provincial powers by focusing on its core responsibilities. This update provides for the creation of a new federal fund and expands Ottawa's role in directing economic investment. Does the Bloc Québécois support this increased centralization, or does it believe that these decisions should remain decentralized in order to reflect local priorities?
