Employment Insurance  Mr. Speaker, this is embarrassing. During the week of March 8, a day when we celebrate women's rights, this government, which claims to be feminist, is in court to retain the right to deny employment insurance to new mothers who lose their jobs. Let us just think about that for a moment.

International Women's Day  Mr. Speaker, these are tough times for humanity, what with the pandemic, global warming, and the war in Ukraine. Things may look bleak, but there is hope. The future is feminist. Yes, the future is feminist. That is not just the theme of the International Day of Women's Rights, it is the promise we are making.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Manicouagan for her speech. There is one thing I want to comment on. She talked about Ms. Lebel and Mr. Legault and what is going on in the National Assembly. Earlier, a Liberal MP once again accused the Bloc Québécois of picking a fight. I actually see us as spokespeople for Quebec's demands.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague from Jonquière for his passionate and fascinating speech. I will not be making any comments about his weight. He talked a lot about the importance of nationalism and the fact that it should not be seen as looking inward. I would also like to hear him talk about the fact that we are here for one thing.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague from New Westminster—Burnaby for his speech. I am thanking him now because, as of this morning, he seems to be in agreement with our motion on this opposition day. I assume that the New Democrats will vote in favour of the motion.

Emergencies Act  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. I think I have demonstrated in my speech that this is not a national crisis, but one that is limited to Ottawa. Elsewhere, such as in Quebec City, the crises that occurred were resolved, because there was co-operation. Right now, both the police and the governments have all the tools that they need to act.

Emergencies Act  Madam Speaker, indeed, I addressed this issue. The Prime Minister should not have been acting like a political commentator, making inappropriate comments. He should have acted like a political leader, led an all-party committee to get everyone around the same table, and come up with a peaceful solution.

Emergencies Act  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Beauport—Limoilou for her important question. As politicians, we definitely needed to listen to the different voices that were heard loud and clear during the protest. This was not about commenting, taking sides or taking a stand. Our goal was to bring the various parties together.

Emergencies Act  Madam Speaker, I would like to start by commending my colleague from Longueuil—Saint‑Hubert for his passionate speech and, more importantly, for finally agreeing to share his time with me. It is with great concern that I rise today to participate in this historic debate. I would like to begin with a quick question.

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Winnipeg Centre, who is a fellow member of the Standing Committee on the Status of Women. I know these issues are very important to us both. We agree on two things. First, the rich must pay their fair share. The Liberals had announced measures to crack down on tax havens, so it is deeply disappointing to see next to nothing about that in Bill C‑8, because that would be one way to make the wealthy pay.

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. There is a problem with the interpretation and it is creating a lot of confusion.

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Peace River—Westlock. He raised the issue of the supply chain and cars, and I would like to come back to something the member who spoke before him said. That member said that it is important to invest in better windows but that the government should not necessarily be investing in electric cars by providing credits to further encourage the electrification of transportation, for example.

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Madam Speaker, before my hon. colleague from Vancouver East was interrupted by technical difficulties, she spoke at length about the issue of seniors and the fact that they are the most vulnerable. Back in August, the Bloc Québécois wrote to the Minister of Finance to denounce the cuts to the guaranteed income supplement for seniors who had received CERB.

Resumption of Debate on Address in Reply  Madam Speaker, I am pleased to see you for the first time in 2022. I thank my colleague for his speech. He spoke a lot about health, but does he realize that the problem is not about creating standards or federal interference in jurisdictions belonging to Quebec, the provinces and the territories?

Government Business No. 4—An Act to Provide Further Support in Response to COVID-19  Madam Speaker, I have already talked about the one-time cheques. Seniors are outraged. They feel they are being used, manipulated for electoral purposes, rewarded with nothing more than a little cheque from the government every now and then. What they need is stable, long-term buying power.
