Mr. Speaker, first, while the abolition of the Senate, in my view, requires a fundamental constitutional amendment, in other words, the unanimity of all 10 provincial legislatures as well as the Parliament of Canada, the details of the structure and the rules that govern the Senate are the exclusive prerogative of the federal government.
Monsieur le Président, premièrement, l'abolition du Sénat exige une modification constitutionnelle fondamentale, ce qui suppose l'accord unanime des 10 assemblées législatives provinciales et du Parlement du Canada.
