Whether we are talking about sports—a somewhat less partisan topic—or about more substantial issues in this Parliament, we know that collaboration with the provinces sometimes means that the federal government offloads its responsibilities onto the provinces. It is extremely important that collaboration means just that and that the federal government fully assumes its responsibilities and does the work it needs to do in that regard, while respecting the jurisdiction of the provinces.
Or il est extrêmement important que la collaboration demeure une collaboration, et que le gouvernement fédéral assume pleinement son rôle et le travail qu'il a à faire en ce sens, tout en respectant les compétences provinciales.
