It all falls under Quebec's exclusive jurisdiction.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124031\" data-originallang=\"fr\">In the 1970s, the Liberals created a similar department of urban affairs. Quebec and the other provinces fought tooth and nail to defend their exclusive jurisdiction in that area, and the department was dismantled a few years later.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124032\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Quebec has always strongly defended its areas of jurisdiction. It will not let the federal government infringe on its jurisdiction, regardless of which party is in power.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124033\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The NDP wants to interfere and bypass the Parliament of Quebec in order to implement a pan-Canadian strategy in areas under Quebec's exclusive jurisdiction and centralize everything in Ottawa.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124034\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Working for Quebec means accepting the fact that Quebec is a nation. </p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4124029\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, la semaine derni\u00e8re, l'Assembl\u00e9e nationale adoptait une motion unanime refusant toute ing\u00e9rence suppl\u00e9mentaire du f\u00e9d\u00e9ral dans le monde municipal, comme le NPD s'engage \u00e0 le faire.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124030\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Que l'on parle d'un minist\u00e8re ou d'un ministre des Affaires municipales ou urbaines, c'est la m\u00eame chose. Il s'agit d'une comp\u00e9tence exclusive du Qu\u00e9bec.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124031\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Dans les ann\u00e9es 1970, les lib\u00e9raux avaient cr\u00e9\u00e9 un minist\u00e8re des Affaires urbaines similaire. Le Qu\u00e9bec et les provinces avaient alors d\u00e9fendu bec et ongles leur comp\u00e9tence exclusive en la mati\u00e8re, et le minist\u00e8re avait \u00e9t\u00e9 aboli quelques ann\u00e9es plus tard. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124032\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Le Qu\u00e9bec a toujours prot\u00e9g\u00e9 avec vigueur ses comp\u00e9tences. Il ne laisserait pas le f\u00e9d\u00e9ral, peu importe le parti, empi\u00e9ter sur ses comp\u00e9tences. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124033\" data-originallang=\"fr\">\u00c0 force d'ing\u00e9rence et de strat\u00e9gie pancanadienne dans les champs exclusifs du Qu\u00e9bec, et \u00e0 force de vouloir tout centraliser \u00e0 Ottawa, le NPD veut passer par-dessus le Parlement du Qu\u00e9bec.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4124034\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Ignorer que le Qu\u00e9bec forme une nation, ce n'est pas cela, travailler pour le Qu\u00e9bec.</p>"
