[Traduction] Il est inacceptable que le gouvernement fédéral ait le pouvoir de lever des fonds et détienne presque tous les leviers fiscaux, alors que la Constitution impose tellement d'obligations aux provinces, notamment celle d'assurer les services essentiels en santé et en éducation.
[English] It is wrong to have a government federally that has the power to raise money and has most of the tax levers, and then to have provincial governments with so much constitutionally enshrined responsibilities to provide the essential services of health care and education.
