Madam Speaker, the gravity of this crisis requires a measured and serious approach. We owe it to Canadians and to the dignity of this House to do better.
Our government continues to work closely with provinces and territories, supporting them through the emergency treatment fund and the substance use and addictions program, and strengthening enforcement to disrupt the illegal drug supply. These priorities are not mutually exclusive, and responsible leaders do not pretend they are.
This crisis requires empathy, evidence and action, not division. Let us bring more honour to this House by meeting this moment with the seriousness, compassion and integrity Canadians expect of us.
