Mr. Speaker, Bill C-29 is a major step backward when it comes to protecting consumers in Quebec.
Yesterday, the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Finance played the “little guy from Shawinigan” card. That is exactly what we are telling him. The people of Shawinigan are just like other Quebeckers. They want their elected representatives to defend them, not banks. I am also talking to all of his Quebec colleagues. The National Assembly unanimously asked them to stand up for their fellow citizens.
Will they do that for once, or are they just here to take advantage of the ministerial limousine service?
