Madam Speaker, it is true that many Canadians are taking great risks to do their jobs and play their part.
The role of Parliament is to ensure that the government's responses meet Canadians' needs. If the members of the other parties are not ready to do their job, we, on this side, are. We have already seen that, when opposition parties do their job, they obtain better results for Canadians. This is not conjecture because we have seen it happen twice already.
Obviously, during a crisis we cannot let the government do whatever it wants. We cannot abandon our role nor shirk our responsibilities. We can prove to Canadians that, during a crisis, their democratic institutions continue to function and continue to ensure that the government implements the programs that Canadians need.
That is the role of the opposition and of all MPs, and that is the role that the Conservatives will continue to play.
