Madam Speaker, I have a question for my colleague.
We wasted an entire day yesterday debating an NDP motion calling for national standards in residential and long-term care facilities. Today, once again, we are debating a motion that essentially calls for a reopening plan. In other words, we will have spent two days debating matters under provincial jurisdiction.
Jurisdictions are not a purely administrative matter. The provinces administer health care. They run hospitals, hire doctors and work on prevention. The provinces do all that.
On what basis do my friends in the NDP and the Conservative Party think they know better than the provincial premiers how to handle this pandemic?
