Health  Mr. Speaker, I do not want Canadians to be afraid of what the member opposite just said. I assure all Canadians that we are confident we will receive doses from the Serum Institute of India in the coming months, as promised. We will continue to work with our international partners to ensure that Canada gets vaccine doses on schedule.

Health  Mr. Speaker, we saw the Conservatives do this perhaps a month or a month and a half ago. When the European Union first mentioned possible restrictions, the Conservative politicians started yelling that Canadians were not going to get any more vaccines and that we would be in trouble.

Foreign Affairs  Mr. Speaker, we have been working on Raif Badawi's case for years. I myself have spoken directly to the king and the prince to make sure they are taking our demands and concerns about Mr. Badawi's detention and safety seriously. All Canadian MPs want Mr. Badawi and his family to be reunited, and we will continue to support them in every way we can.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, Canadians tuning into question period today might be puzzled and wonder why the Conservatives are suddenly going back to failed lines of attack from many months ago. It is all about short-term politics for them. It is all about trying to change a channel on the disastrous convention they just had last weekend.

Post-Secondary Education  Mr. Speaker, that is utter nonsense. We have supported students every step of the way. We suspended student loan repayments, doubled the Canada student grants and introduced the Canada emergency student benefit, which has helped over 700,000 post-secondary students and recent graduates.

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, the rise in anti-Asian hatred and racism that we have seen over the past many months is absolutely horrific. It is unacceptable in Canada or anywhere else around the world. As a government, as we move forward on anti-racism strategies with the secretariat, with record investments, with support for various communities, we will continue to directly and specifically support Asian Canadians who have seen a horrific rise in hate crimes.

Telecommunications  Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for Châteauguay-Lacolle for her question and her hard work. I was very proud to announce this week, together with Premier Legault, a joint investment of more than $800 million to fast-track broadband projects in Quebec. This new investment will ensure that every Quebecker can connect to high-speed Internet by the end of 2022.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, I am stunned that the Conservative opposition continues to talk about the WE Charity in the midst of this pandemic, in the midst of the concerns that Canadians have about rebuilding our economy in terms of the work we are doing together. While Conservatives continue to focus on us and on politics, we will stay focused on supporting Canadians.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, as the Conservatives themselves pointed out a number of weeks ago, we are much more focused on supporting Canadians' jobs than we are our own. Our focus from the beginning of this pandemic has been on delivering for Canadians, on supporting families, on supporting small businesses, on helping workers through this pandemic, and yes, on building back better, which involves recognizing that the jobs of the future require us to be responsible about the environment and that we cannot have a plan for the future of the economy if we do not have a plan to fight climate change.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, while the Conservatives continue to play politics, we will continue to focus on the supports Canadians need. While Conservative politicians continue to say we did too much too fast to support Canadians, we will continue to say we have their backs. That is what we have had throughout this pandemic.

National Defence  Mr. Speaker, as I have said, we always take all allegations of sexual misconduct extremely seriously. No one should ever feel unsafe at work. We will continue to work to change the culture in the Canadian Armed Forces so that no one ever feels like they cannot come forward with allegations of sexual misconduct.

National Defence  Mr. Speaker, allegations of sexual misconduct or inappropriate behaviour need to be followed up by the appropriate authorities, and that is exactly what happened in this case. The ombudsperson was directed toward the right people in terms of following up on an investigation. The ombudsperson was not able to share further information with the investigators and, therefore, the investigation did not move forward.

Pensions  Mr. Speaker, the political games that the leader of the Bloc Québécois is playing are disappointing, because he knows full well that we cannot talk about what is in the budget before we table it in the House of Commons. I encourage seniors in Rimouski and across Quebec and Canada to take comfort in the fact that we committed to increasing old age security for seniors when they turn 75 and that we are committed to supporting seniors with record investments during this pandemic.

Health  Mr. Speaker, as the member knows very well, I recently had some very good conversations with Mr. Legault about supporting the province's health care system and increasing our joint investments in areas like green energy production and high-speed Internet. We will continue to work hand in hand to ensure that Quebeckers and all Canadians have the services they need both during this pandemic and beyond.

National Defence  Mr. Speaker, I have been answering this question during the press scrums for months. Here, in the House of Commons, we always take such allegations seriously. My office was made aware of the fact that the Minister of National Defence directed the ombudsperson to the appropriate authorities for follow-up.
