Relations with Indigenous Peoples  Mr. Speaker, when it is a question of a blockade that has been paralyzing a major, crucial piece of infrastructure like a rail system in the middle of winter for 13 days, of course there are some extreme concerns, at least for the near future, and it is our duty to address those concerns.

Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, I am a sovereignist, and in the past several days of debate on free trade, I have been hearing many concerns expressed about Canadian sovereignty on trade issues. My colleague talked about it again earlier. Obviously, when it comes to defending Canadian sovereignty in trade agreements, there is always something called state strategic industries.

Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement Implementation Act  Madam Speaker, it was really interesting to listen to my colleague's speech. The Conservative Party is talking about concerns over threats to Canadian sovereignty from U.S. protectionism, which make the negotiations that much more complex and difficult. Common concerns are being voiced from east to west regarding supply management and aluminum.

Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement Implementation Act  Madam Speaker, under the current occupant of the White House in Washington, trade deals are becoming increasingly protectionist. When negotiating agreements, the U.S. always cites the national security provision. Whether it is about steel or aluminum, the Americans freely invoke it in all their negotiations.

Resumption of debate on Address in Reply  Madam Speaker, I would like to congratulate my colleague on her speech. She made a lot of sense about a lot of things, including her local- and provincial-level concerns about infrastructure, social issues and youth. Those values are shared by most Canadians and most of the MPs here.

D-Day  Mr. Speaker, on June 5, 1944, at 9:15 p.m., Radio Londres alerted the French resistance that Operation Overlord was about to begin by broadcasting the first stanza of Verlaine's poem Chanson d'automne: The autumn's throbbing Strings moan, sobbing Drone their dole; Long-drawn and low, Each tremolo Sears my soul.

Public Services and Procurement  Mr. Speaker, we already knew that the Irvings were controlling the Maritimes, but it is becoming increasingly obvious that their company is also exerting more and more control over the federal government. First of all, the Irvings took pretty much all of the money that was available to help combat the spruce budworm.

Public Services and Procurement  Mr. Speaker, I was just getting started. Having had 600 lobbying meetings since the Liberals came to power in 2015, the Irvings are clearly part of the family, which has paid off. They were given a golden ticket, which lets them pass off their Alberta french fry factories as technological benefits for the shipbuilding industry.

Intergovernmental Relations  Mr. Speaker, working for Quebec and in Quebec's best interests means complying with the agreements between this government and Quebec. The agreement on infrastructure makes it clear that Canada's role is limited to contributing financially, period. It will not be involved in the implementation stages.

Intergovernmental Relations  Mr. Speaker, this week, Quebec got to witness a road show, a piece of political theatre in bad taste about extending Highway 19. The people of Terrebonne are pleased, because this is the good news they have been waiting for for years. However, it is Quebec that builds highways, not Ottawa.

Justice  Mr. Speaker, that is just a sham and a gong show. I want to move on to something else. Vice-Admiral Norman is the victim of both the Conservatives' pettiness and the Liberal government's incompetence. The Conservatives hid the fact that they mandated Admiral Norman to talk to Davie about the Asterix so that they could continue their partisan attacks at his expense—and at the expense of Davie, in particular.

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, at this time, there should be no petty politics when it comes to flood victims. We have seen the public's generosity on several occasions during different disasters that have occurred in Canada and Quebec. People need immediate assistance now. There are urgent needs and there is no time to lose.

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, families in Quebec are working around the clock to save their homes. Some have already lost everything. People who were evacuated are wondering if they still have a home to return to. In the meantime, the Minister of Public Safety is not sure if he will directly compensate the victims of the flood that continues to rage on.

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, I thank the minister for his answer. So far, the Government of Quebec has given the Canadian Red Cross $1 million to directly help the victims with their basic needs. I am still talking about the floods since that is the issue at hand. The Government of Quebec gave $1 million without delay.
