Government Priorities

[Mark Carney, Liberal, Prime Minister]

Mr. Speaker, I am sure I speak for all parliamentarians in welcoming the member for Battle River—Crowfoot back to the House of Commons. He may notice a few things have changed since he was here last: the largest women's caucus in Canadian history and a spirit of collaboration that was shown in the opening session, including in the passage of the Building Canada Act.

The House also passed the Bloc Québécois's Bill C-202 to protect supply management.

I absolutely agree with the Leader of the Opposition's feelings and objectives for our great country.
