Madam Speaker, this question has many elements.
I will nevertheless take the time to acknowledge my colleague from Louis-Hébert, whom I met in another life. I share his sentiments. I appreciate him very much as well. I look forward to seeing him in person in the House and discussing our previous lives and even politics.
I would like to provide another Bloc Québécois quote from the same article. It quotes the leader of the Bloc Québécois as saying, “Quebeckers may not want an election in the short term, but we understand that they certainly do not want another partisan Liberal scandal that seriously undermines the fight against COVID-19”.
This was our position in the context of the disastrous management of the crisis, amid an accumulation of Liberal Party scandals. Sometimes we must make an impossible choice. At some point, we might have had to topple the government because the other option, keeping it in place, would have been even worse in the context of the crisis.
