Mr. Speaker, first of all, congratulations on your election.
I would like to sincerely thank the voters of Rimouski-Neigette, La Mitis, Matapédia and Les Basques who placed their trust in me for this new mandate. I salute them and thank them from the bottom of my heart.
The Speech from the Throne shows no respect for jurisdictions. With regard to social programs, housing and immigration, it is a direct affront. The Quebec government is clear, and it is asking the federal government to give it full responsibility for immigration.
My question for my Conservative Party colleague is this. Does he agree with the Quebec National Assembly's request that the Government of Quebec be fully responsible for immigration?
