Consumer Protection  Mr. Speaker, we do not need to delay implementation of the bill—the bill should simply be withdrawn. This is what needs to be done. The premier of Quebec has asked for it to be withdrawn. The premier trusts the Senate, although perhaps he no longer trusts the members across the way.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, clearly, the office of prime minister deserves to be treated with a great deal of respect. I am confident that the Prime Minister will continue to do so, but again today, another fundraising activity involving him, this time in Montreal, is raising questions. The organizers candidly promoted the fact that participants could have privileged access to the Prime Minister if they paid $1,500 to attend the event.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, perhaps it is only unprecedented for the Liberal Party. I had the honour of being part of a government that travelled across the country, all year round, in preparation for the budget every year, with former ministers Mr. Flaherty and Mr. Oliver. We criss-crossed the country.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, they can give any answer they want, but the fact is that the Prime Minister admitted to the House that he attended a fundraiser with Chinese billionaires to talk about Canadian issues. He said that his intent was to attract investors to Canada. Was it a Liberal Party of Canada fundraiser or an event during which people could lobby the Prime Minister on matters of personal interest to them?

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, when non-Canadians attend a gathering and did not pay to be there, obviously they are there to lobby the Prime Minister. That is very clear. This morning, we discovered that we have a very hard time getting access to the Prime Minister so we can ask him our questions.

The Economy  Mr. Speaker, the only plan that seems to work for the Liberals is the marijuana plant. The economic plan certainly is not working. Canada has lost 30,000 jobs. The Liberals will tell us over and over again that they lowered taxes. What they have done is create future debt, promise money that they do not have, and create illusions.

Softwood Lumber  Mr. Speaker, he should say that to the people in Quebec's regions who keep contacting our offices because they do not know who to talk to in the government, now that there is no longer a Quebec lieutenant or a minister of the Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regions of Quebec.

Justice  Mr. Speaker, when people commit crimes, they do so at the expense of others—the victims. Today, victims are looking to the current Government of Canada to see how their rights will be defended and how criminals will be brought before the courts so justice can be served. What will the minister do?

Justice  Mr. Speaker, another subject is very important. Some provinces are having difficulty bringing criminals to justice. Canadians are watching the Minister of Justice and wondering what she can do to improve the system. Some criminal trials may not go ahead. What will the minister do to ensure that justice is served in Canada?

Softwood Lumber  Mr. Speaker, the agreement expired during the election campaign after 10 peaceful years for the forestry industry thanks to our former government. It should come as no surprise that seven ministers of the current government opposed the softwood lumber agreement in 2006, when they were members of the official opposition.

Softwood Lumber  Mr. Speaker, consultations with U.S. partners confirm two important things. In 2006, we had a softwood lumber agreement thanks to prime minister Harper's very strong political will to resolve the matter. The government of this Prime Minister was not firmly determined to renew the softwood lumber agreement and that has put us in a weak position.

Foreign Affairs  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister displayed a lack of judgment once again last weekend in his remarks following the passing of dictator Fidel Castro. His statement shocked many Canadians. Now that the Prime Minister has acknowledged that Fidel Castro was a dictator, will he also acknowledge his lapse in judgment?

Foreign Affairs  Mr. Speaker, when a U.S. senator describes the announcement as shameful and embarrassing, then we must take note. The Prime Minister acknowledged that Mr. Castro was a dictator. As we say back home, it is time to walk the talk. Now that he has spoken, it is time for action. Will the Prime Minister edit the comments that appear on his website to reflect what he has now acknowledged?

Foreign Affairs  Mr. Speaker, after initially ignoring the fact, the Prime Minister himself admitted that Fidel Castro was a dictator. However, he failed to mention the abuses of human rights and freedom under Castro in his official statement. Will he now amend his official statement on the Prime Minister's website to reflect what he has publicly admitted?

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, it seems the Prime Minister has forgotten about the important files that matter to Canadians, like creating jobs and important agreements. He only has time for cash for access meetings and fundraising for the Liberal Party and the Trudeau Foundation. When will the Prime Minister follow the ethical rules he personally put in place a year ago?
