Madam Speaker, the government's motion was a proposal and, like every proposal, it is subject to negotiation.
We have often negotiated with the government, as we did on April 29 when we created the Canada emergency student benefit, the CESB. During the negotiations, the Bloc Québécois was of the opinion that a student who works more hours must automatically earn more money, no matter the circumstances. The government made a commitment to act on this proposal. The Deputy Prime Minister personally confirmed the government's commitment and agreed to follow up with the Bloc Québécois. Three weeks later, we have heard nothing more—it has been radio silence.
I like to negotiate with people of good faith who keep their word. Is it possible to negotiate agreements with a government that does not keep its word?
