Madam Speaker, my colleague asks a good question, but the essence of my speech is that we do not want to lose our political weight. Who would want to lose political weight? Who would want to lose representation? Who would want to lose a presence here, where decisions are made that affect people's everyday lives? That is what we want to maintain. We want to maintain Quebec’s political weight. Numbers are one thing. We can always discuss them, but what is essential for us is to maintain our political weight so that we can fight for the issues I mentioned. There are about a hundred of them. The hon. member for Mirabel named several earlier. If we were not here, nothing would be done about these issues.
