Mr. Speaker, no sooner were we free of the NDP-Liberal coalition that resulted in the most disastrous government in history, than we were caught up in a new saga with the Bloc-Liberal coalition. What is the point of the Bloc Québécois, when we know that it voted in favour of $500 billion in inflationary spending by this Prime Minister, who fattened up the bureaucracy in Ottawa with Quebeckers' money, adding 100,000 more public servants to the machinery of government? The “Liberal Bloc” is just more of the same. We saw that yesterday in the byelection in Montreal. What, then, is the point of the “Liberal Bloc” and who does it serve?

Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Québécois is a costly proposition to Canadian taxpayers, but especially to Quebec taxpayers. What use is the Bloc Québécois when we know that it voted for the the largest-ever expansion of the federal government, for more spending than ever, for more public servants than ever and for the most scandals ever? Aside from keeping the Liberal government on life support for the next year, what is the “Liberal Bloc” good for?
