Madam Speaker, I want to begin by thanking my colleague from Chicoutimi—Le Fjord for his kind words and for standing in solidarity with all regions of Quebec. I thank him for his kind words about my colleague from Lac-Saint-Jean.
As he mentioned, now is the time to stand together. People in our communities are very anxious.
I would like the member to talk about coordination between public safety officials and the SOPFEU and how they are working on the ground. I would also like him to talk about the important role that we, as elected officials, can play as a liaison and the importance of communications and local media.
I would like the member to talk about how to get the message out and to share the necessary information to keep people safe.
