Monsieur le Lieutenant- Gouverneur, Monsieur le Secrétaire général et Greffier du Conseil exécutif, Monsieur le Secrétaire de l’Assemblée nationale, Membres des familles des ministres, Chers collègues, Chers amis, Aujourd’hui, je souhaite m’adresser directement à toutes les Québécoises et à tous les Québécois. *** Lors de l’assermentation de notre premier Conseil des ministres, je vous disais que depuis trop longtemps le Québec repoussait à plus tard le moment des décisions difficiles. Le redressement que nous avons effectué ensemble n’a pas été facile. Nous le savons tous. Mais nous savons également qu’il était nécessaire. https://www.premier-ministre.gouv.qc.ca/actualites/allocutions/details.asp?idAllocutions=906 1/8 03/03/2018 Allocution du 28 janvier 2016 – Allocution du premier ministre du Québec, Philippe Couillard, à l’occasion de la cérémonie de prestation de ser… Nécessaire parce que dans la vie, on n’est jamais prospère lorsque l’on dépense systématiquement plus que ce que l’on gagne. Nécessaire parce que si nous voulons être plus équitables et plus solidaires les uns envers les autres, il faut en avoir les moyens financiers. Et nécessaire parce qu’on ne peut continuellement repousser à demain ce qui doit être fait aujourd’hui, ou pire encore, ce qui aurait dû être fait durant des décennies.
