Madam Speaker, I am pleased to hear our Liberal colleague say that it is up to the provinces to ensure the sound management and administration of the health care system. However, what he said about members of the Bloc Québécois is rather frustrating and offensive. He said that the Bloc members were flipping out. The Bloc Québécois is defending Quebec, and it joined the Government of Quebec in asking for $6 billion in health care transfers to meet needs. We are getting $1 billion, so that is what the Bloc is upset about. Can my colleague explain why he said that the Bloc Québécois is flipping out?

They care, Mr. Speaker. As for judgment, I am not so sure. I am glad the Bloc Québécois is interested in French. It just had a whole opposition day, and members could have talked about the environment, our seniors, the fight against poverty or even French, but no, they got together and decided to talk about the Constitution. That is their priority. Meanwhile, Liberals are working for all Canadians, including all Quebeckers.
