| It alarmed the particularists without propitiating the centralists. |
| This is not about good versus bad guys, noble decentralists versus wicked centralists. |
| The German centralists opposed it for giving too much authority to the provinces, and the federalists, particularly the Hungarians, opposed it for not restoring fully the old rights and privileges of the crown lands. |
| Mr. Speaker, I think that Quebeckers, like other Canadians, are fed up with this bickering between centralists and separatists. |
