Business of Supply  He will get his chance. That member always does get a chance to speak, even though he wants to heckle when we are talking about something this important. The Liberals want to be patted on the back when all we have seen is incompetence and failure. That failure, quite frankly, has a grave impact on some of our most vulnerable citizens.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, it is a pleasure to be able to rise to speak to this important issue today. I will be sharing my time with the hon. member for Battlefords—Lloydminster. I am pleased to rise after the member for Milton so I can correct the numerous amounts of misinformation we just heard in his speech, which was written by an expert, I am sure, in the Prime Minister's Office.

Agriculture and Agri-Food  Mr. Speaker, our dairy farmers produce the highest-quality milk in the world, but recent trade deals have given away more of Canada's dairy market to foreign farmers. The Liberals promised a multi-year compensation package to our farmers for granting this access, but they refuse to provide details on the timelines of when this payment will be made for year two.

COVID-19 Emergency Response  Mr. Speaker, many federally regulated employers are barely hanging on due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They are 100% focused on survival, but instead of helping them the Liberals are insisting that now is the time to hold costly consultations on the right of employees to “disengage from work”.

Agriculture and Agri-Food  Mr. Speaker, when the Canadian Food Inspection Agency falsely accused Fraser Valley Specialty Poultry of illegally shipping product across provincial boundaries, they told the owner to just admit he was guilty and pay the fine, but Ken Falk refused. He fought back and was found not guilty of all charges.

Cancer  Mr. Speaker, Jacob Bredenhof is a childhood cancer survivor. Two years ago, he was diagnosed with osteosarcoma. He endured a painful leg amputation and 17 difficult rounds of chemo, but neither cancer nor COVID could keep Jacob down. Last month, he and his family organized a “Pedal for Hope” team to raise funds for the Terry Fox Foundation, completing a 105-kilometre bike ride through my riding of Chilliwack—Hope with Jacob leading the way.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, we heard all day Tuesday, with the threat of an election and a confidence motion over creating a committee to examine Liberal corruption, that we were not talking about the right thing; we were not talking about COVID-19. Here we are, 48 hours later, talking about COVID-19 with a very comprehensive request for documents and examination of best practices.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question. I think it is a good one, because the government no longer seems to care about committee work. No work is acceptable to the government anymore. Government members will not accept any work plan. They are filibustering every committee.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, that is what made this thing so unbelievable. For the government to say that the public service was unable to deliver a program for students, when there is already a program that exists to deliver job experience for students, is outrageous. We all participate in that program every year, the Canada summer jobs program.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, it is a fact that parliamentarians agreed to have certain documents released to the committee prior to the Prime Minister's coming in with the hammer and proroguing Parliament for no reason, in the middle of a pandemic, when the CERB was about to expire and when other matters needed to be considered by this Parliament.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, it is always a pleasure to address the House. It is also a pleasure to be back in Ottawa to participate in the debate, after being away for a few months in my riding, doing work on behalf of my constituents who had been impacted by COVID-19. I will be splitting my time with the hon. member for Lethbridge.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, the Liberals are trying to present this in a way that if we do not ask a question about COVID-19, we are failing Canadians; if every motion we move at a committee is not about COVID-19, we are failing Canadians; if every question on the Order Paper or every single activity that we perform in the House is not related directly to COVID-19, we are somehow letting down Canadians.

Business of Supply  It is a scandal. The member Winnipeg North heckles. He does not get enough chance to talk in the House, I guess. However, it is a scandal. The program that was created by the government no longer exists because the Prime Minister has admitted his mistake. He has talked about how he should have recused himself.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, it was an interesting avoidance of the issue altogether from that member. He talked about health care workers and small business owners, as if they should be used as political cover for Liberal corruption. When we use the word, we know exactly what it means. It is not a mistake when they design a program where a charity that has given hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Prime Minister's family gets half a billion dollars from the Government of Canada.

Petitions  Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to introduce a petition on behalf of my constituent, Jocelyn James, whose son, Steven, lives with cystic fibrosis. His access to life-changing new medicines has been put at risk by the government's proposed price restrictions, which have stopped new treatments from coming to Canada.
