Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, what has happened since the police dismantled the blockade in Belleville? Other blockades have gone up, in Kanesatake, in Lennoxville, in Gaspé and on the North Shore. In Kahnawake, in my region, the blockade is still up. The number of protesters has increased, and the blockade is bigger than ever.

Emergency Debate  He was talking about your energy corridor.

Cancellation of Teck Frontier Mine Project  Madam Speaker, I commend the member on her speech. However, I have to wonder about the fact that Canada imports oil from Saudi Arabia. Canada produces so much oil that, in addition to meeting Canadian demand for oil, it is our biggest export. We are the fourth-largest producer in the world.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from New Westminster—Burnaby. Historically, the fathers of Canadian Confederation decided that health should be the responsibility of the provinces and Quebec. The government has since revealed a very obvious thirst for centralization. Last year, the federal government intruded further and further into areas of provincial authority by exploiting its spending authority.

Traffic Accident on Highway 15  Mr. Speaker, yesterday was a difficult day for the community of La Prairie. Sadly, two people were killed and at least 60 others injured in a pile-up involving nearly 200 vehicles. It is a real tragedy. My thoughts and those of my colleagues are with the families affected by this tragic accident.

Exporail  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister gave the Minister of Canadian Heritage the mandate to review our national museums policy to ensure that people can access history. My riding is home to Exporail, the only museum that specializes in railways. The Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage recommended granting this museum national museum status in 2007, but nothing has happened since then.

Relations with Indigenous Peoples  Madam Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his question. From what I heard, it seems that Mr. Norton is setting down “his conditions” to resolve the situation in British Columbia. One of those conditions, which is also one of the proposed solutions, is to have the RCMP withdraw.

Relations with Indigenous Peoples  Madam Speaker, I thank the member for her question. Yes, last week, I contacted the office of Joseph Norton, the grand chief of the Kahnawake band council, but we were unable to meet because of scheduling difficulties. I am still waiting for his call. Since they know a little bit about how this works, these people often prefer to talk to the minister or the Prime Minister.

Relations with Indigenous Peoples  Madam Speaker, I want to inform you that I will be sharing my time with the hon. member for Pierre-Boucher—Les Patriotes—Verchères. I am not proud of this, but in some ways, the people of La Prairie were the pioneers of the sad situation were are currently experiencing. As of last Monday, over 3,000 people in my part of the country were denied access to public transportation because of a blockade set up by about a dozen individuals in Kahnawake.

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, the rail blockades are holding the public hostage. In my riding, more than 3,000 people no longer have access to public transit. Last week, I tried to contact the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations; no answer. I contacted the Minister of Indigenous Services; no answer.

Request for Emergency Debate  Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 52, I rise today to request that the House hold an emergency debate on the issues that have motivated some indigenous communities to impose rail blockades and on the economic impact of those blockades. As parliamentarians, we cannot remain silent and allow this conflict to get any further out of hand, a conflict that, with each passing hour, affects more and more citizens and affects the relationship between the federal government and indigenous peoples across Quebec and Canada.

Justice  Mr. Speaker, a few minutes ago, we learned that the English Montreal School Board has renounced government funding for its challenge to Bill 21. Even the school board thinks this situation is absurd. I hope the Liberals will realize the absurdity of the situation. Will the government commit to stop all types of funding for future challenges to Bill 21?

Justice  Mr. Speaker, on Tuesday, responding to the Bloc, the Minister of Justice issued an invitation to challenge bill 21. At 2:27 p.m., he said, “There are Quebeckers who are currently challenging the bill in court, and that is the right forum.” The next day, we learned that the English Montreal School Board is challenging bill 21 with money from Ottawa.

Justice  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister said during the election that he was not going to challenge Bill 21 at this time. The moment came yesterday with Quebec taxpayers' money. François Legault said this morning that the Canadian Prime Minister was insulting Quebeckers. He said, “This is not insignificant.

Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. Dumping has been condemned by all industrialized countries and by the WTO. Everyone knows that the Chinese dump products, meaning that they sell their products at prices below the production costs. China is banned from exporting aluminum to Canada and the United States because of this practice.
