Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for his thoughtful remarks.
As he can see from my exchanges with him and his colleagues in French, I want to understand the needs of all Canadians, including those in Quebec.
We share concerns about forestry and the government's lack of attention to major challenges facing our communities. What struck me was the absence of the term “substance abuse”. The government eliminated the position of minister of mental health and addictions and does not seem to care about the crisis plaguing my community.
To what extent could Quebec be affected by this as well?
