April 3, 1998 (36th Parliament, 1st Session)

Hon. Herb Gray (Deputy Prime Minister, Lib.)

Mr. Speaker, first, the question is based on false premises.
Second, we know that the Standing Orders do not allow ministers to comment on their previous responsibilities.
I repeat, it is too bad, but most Quebeckers and other Canadians support the Canada option and the Bloc Quebecois is opposed to it. Present polls show that the Bloc Quebecois is mistaken in its criticism.
