Mr. Chair, the Conservative Party of Canada, under the leadership of Pierre Poilievre, has voted against $274 million to combat hate in this country. They voted against $25 million for a new Montreal Holocaust museum; $5 million for the first-ever national Holocaust remembrance program; funding for a Holocaust education centre, something that the communities have asked for; and enhanced security measures for synagogues in this country. They voted against every single one of those. Shame on them.
