Mr. Speaker, I am deeply honoured to rise to ask my colleague a question.
It is a lesson in politics and a lesson in speed reading. At the same time, I am a bit sad, because some items that were in the budget and are now in the update that aim to support Canada were among the issues raised. For example, there was the measure to provide $5 billion in support to forestry workers. There were also items in the build communities strong fund that are very important to Quebeckers. Earlier on I spoke about it with the Leader of the Opposition. My constituents and the mayors in the riding I represent are extremely satisfied with these items.
I feel a bit sad, and I would like my colleague to tell me about the positive signs he sees in the budget for Quebeckers, because there are some. Examples include the build communities strong fund and research and development for businesses.
