Thank you. We can only hope that the situation with our U.S. partner will return to normal.
I'll move on to another topic again.
In an article published this morning by Radio-Canada, we were told that the Prime Minister wants to circumvent federal laws in the name of innovation.
Some provisions of Bill C‑15 give any minister the authority to disregard any law or any regulation in the name of innovation.
Bill C‑5 already allows the possibility of circumventing the law for the purposes of major projects, and now it's innovation. Seeing that concerns me, because we live under the rule of law. To me, that prospect sounds like an authoritarian policy.
If this kind of policy were passed, wouldn't it undermine the trust of the people and of businesses in the impartiality of the state, which is supposed to uphold the law? Why is the government doing that?
