Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Finance. I would like to thank the Minister of Finance for his reply to my question on the northern preference policy. I am encouraged to know that he still supports the principle of that motion, which was passed on April 11, 1990.
My question would be, would I be safe in assuming that the Minister will continue to support the principle of absolute preference that was contained in that motion when the policy goes to cabinet tomorrow?
