Poverty March 29th, 1996
Mr. Speaker, does the finance minister not agree that it is high time for him to listen to the official opposition's proposals and, for the sake of fairness, to open the government consultation process on business taxation to groups representing the poorest members of our society?
Poverty March 29th, 1996
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the finance minister.
Yesterday, in a poverty profile report, the National Council on Welfare stated that the average poverty rate was higher in Quebec that in the rest of Canada, and that it remained significantly higher than the national average.
How can the finance minister explain his refusal to immediately close all the loopholes, which amount to billions of dollars and benefit rich Canadians, as shown by the council?
Greek People March 27th, 1996
Mr. Speaker, on March 25, Greece celebrated 175 years of independence. It was on March 25, 1821 that the Greek people started their struggle to regain their independence after 500 years of Turkish domination. Their sense of identity as a people enabled them to set off on this difficult journey that required tenacity, courage and above all solidarity.
The people of Greece-birthplace of western civilisation, especially in the fields of arts and science-were oppressed by the Ottoman Empire for hundreds of years without ever losing sight of their quest for independence.
Today, we salute the Greek people, who, through their determination, succeeded in regaining their freedom and their place in the world community. We share with Quebecers and Canadians of Greek origin the well-deserved pride of Greece for achieving its freedom and sovereignty.
