Madam Speaker, the surprises never cease. I also want to say a few words in the debate.
I support the motion proposed by the Bloc Quebecois this afternoon on the future of Air Canada and Canadian Airlines in our country, Canada.
As I said, I really am in support of the motion put forward by the Bloc Quebecois today. I am surprised that some of my Liberal friends are not supporting it as well.
I remember, for example, my hon. friend from Prince Edward Island, when he used to be a progressive left-wing Liberal, would get up and make all kinds of speeches about Canadian nationalism and how we had to look after our own country and stand up for Canada. I remember that before he became power hungry and ran as a Liberal in Prince Edward Island. I wonder where those speeches are now.
All the Bloc Quebecois is doing today is moving a motion that respects existing Canadian law. I am sure you are surprised by this, Madam Speaker, but the Liberal Party is going to vote against it. What the Bloc is saying today is that we should respect the current law that says that no single entity, including someone as wealthy as the member from Prince Edward Island, can buy more than 10% of Air Canada. That is the law and that is what the Bloc is saying today.
What does the Liberal Party say? It says “No, we are not going to support that”.
