Madam Speaker, I thank the hon. member from Saint‑Hyacinthe—Bagot, my always eloquent riding neighbour, for his speech.
I took three things from his speech. First, my hon. colleague talked about the work in committee and in the House, where the government is acting more like a majority government than a minority one. The government forgot that the voters gave it a minority mandate.
Second, by infringing on our parliamentary rights, the government is behaving according to an archaic monarchical model rather than a true democratic model.
Third, my colleague has clearly outlined our different approaches to international relations. The Bloc Québécois vision is different from that of the Liberals and the Conservatives.
Should Quebec not form a country so that we can exercise better control over our borders and national security and so that we can sign our own treaties? Internationally, would it not be important for the country of Quebec have a seat at the United Nations Security Council?
