Agriculture committee  I'm sorry. Perhaps I was not very clear earlier, but the amendment submitted at the last minute was intended to replace amendments BQ-4 and BQ-5. The goal was to suggest a better way of doing it or doing it in a way that we thought might be more admissible. If that had not been

We do not want to also make them responsible for checking documents. That is the reason we are putting forward this amendment. A pilot who has been cleared for takeoff could

Agriculture committee  Chair, I just want to make sure I'm clear on this. Mr. Louis, the concern that folks raised on this additional step was that there would have to be a declaration to the minister. In my opinion, you're making this more vague rather than more specific. I would have preferred

Agriculture committee   give some examples of some of the documentation? It's pretty vague, and I think if we're going to put this in legislation, it has to be a bit more clear. That would be a question I have off the top of my head. A couple of examples would be helpful to see where we're at.

Agriculture committee   the legislative counsel has been quite clear that this would be outside the scope of the bill. I would be really stretching the bounds of my procedural authority in this committee. Although I am sympathetic, a number of amendments that talk about having adjustments and conditions attached

Softwood Lumber   CUSMA with the Trump administration, former prime minister Stephen Harper urged the Canadian government to fold and capitulate. Can the hon. parliamentary secretary share with the House what is being done when it comes to resolving the softwood lumber dispute and supporting our

Softwood Lumber  Mr. Chair, I would like to thank the member opposite for that very important question. We have heard time and time again today the Conservatives highlighting the supposed deal that former prime minister Stephen Harper signed. It is easy to sign a deal when one is going to fold
