Mr. Speaker, today is International Workers Day and the Bloc Québécois would like to pay tribute to the 4 million Quebec workers and 17 million Canadian workers.
These individuals contribute daily to the well-being of their fellow citizens and to the social and economic development of our society.
Every hour of the day, the work of these individuals contributes to the advancement of our society.
The Bloc Québécois recognizes the exceptional contribution of these men and women and will introduce several bills to improve their quality of life.
Parliamentarians are responsible for ensuring that the rights of workers are respected and that they have the fairest and the best possible working conditions.
Today, let us pay tribute to the solidarity of workers around the world, to all these individuals who, day after day, help make our communities a better place. But let us not forget that we should acknowledge their contributions every day.
