Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I would like to begin by correcting some facts. I did not say that everything was hunky-dory. Immigration is a major issue that has implications in different sectors. It is an issue that we are addressing on a priority basis. The context has changed since 2015, because of the wars, of the Afghans and Ukrainians wanting to settle here, and of all the people who need to flee violence in their country.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I will be sharing my time with my colleague from Vaughan—Woodbridge. I am pleased to rise here this morning to speak to the Bloc Québécois motion. I would like to talk about how our government is supporting newcomers, as well as the economic needs of our provinces, territories and municipalities, including Quebec.

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I really enjoy working with my colleague on the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights. From the proposed changes, we can see that the courts will be able to exercise discretion in ordering lifetime registration in cases where an offender's risk of reoffending is high.

Homelessness Awareness Night  Mr. Speaker, it was a unique experience for me to participate in the 22nd edition of Homelessness Awareness Night in Sherbrooke on Friday. Over 200 people were there to raise public awareness of the growing vulnerability of those who have no choice but to live on the streets. Many organizations also demonstrated their support for the cause.

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his important question. As we said earlier during our initial answers, we have been there to help Ukrainians from the start. This agreement will allow Canadian businesses to participate in the economic rebuilding of Ukraine and its recovery after Russia's illegal and unjustified invasion.

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, since the beginning of Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine, Canada has been there to provide assistance, whether military, humanitarian or financial. My colleague's question about the need for heating fuel in winter is obviously a very important one. I would even go so far as to say that it is a human rights issue.

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, as the member said, international trade agreements are one way to help countries. This agreement creates a lot of opportunities, both for Canada and for Ukraine, notably by creating good jobs for the middle class. Specific chapters have been added, such as those my colleague was discussing earlier, on trade and gender, as well as on trade and the environment.

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, it is my honour to rise in the House today in support of the legislation to implement the modernized Canada-Ukraine free trade agreement and present to the House important new additions that were negotiated in the area of services. Nine specific new chapters and nine updated chapters of the 2017 Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement are the result of extensive negotiations as part of our efforts to bring the agreement up to date and make it ambitious, exhaustive and inclusive.

Menopause  Mr. Speaker, I rise today to talk about a topic that I am very familiar with, and that is menopause. It is an important but often overlooked topic that affects many women in our society. Menopause is a normal occurrence in the life of a woman, but it can have a major impact on her mental and physical health.

Battery Industry  Mr. Speaker, today is a big day. This morning, the Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry announced the largest private investment in Quebec. The Swedish company Northvolt has chosen Quebec to build its new plant for manufacturing electric vehicle batteries. This project will create thousands of manufacturing jobs and once again reinforce the enviable position of Canada, and especially Quebec, in the battery industry.

Agriculture and Agri-Food  Madam Speaker, I thank the member for Renfrew—Nipissing—Pembroke for the opportunity to talk about our government's commitment to strong, profitable and sustainable farm businesses across this great country. I would like to remind opposition members that the majority of the agricultural sector's emissions are not subject to carbon pricing.

Agriculture and Agri-Food  Madam Speaker, the member knows full well that many factors affect food prices, including, of course, climate change. That is why we are helping farmers to take action on climate change through popular programs such as the on-farm climate action fund. We also fully recognize that the rising cost of food is putting tremendous pressure on families.

Questions on the Order Paper  Mr. Speaker, the consultation period for the proposed order closed on September 2, 2021. Health Canada received over 25,000 submissions and continues to assess the input it received from Canadians. The Government of Canada remains committed to preventing youth vaping and has taken a number of measures to that effect.

Canada Business Corporations Act  Madam Speaker, Facebook's decision to block Canadian news targets major media outlets—

Sylvain Raby  Mr. Speaker, today I would like to mark the retirement of someone very dear to me. Sylvain Raby worked as a printer at École Mitchell-Montcalm in Sherbrooke for 38 years, but he was much more than a printer. A very active volunteer, he took part in multiple projects for his school.
