Stopping Internet Sexual Exploitation Act  Madam Speaker, on November 21, 2022, a team from the TV show Envoyé spécial travelled from Paris to my office on the Hill. The France 2 team was there for a major investigation into Pornhub and the tragic experience of women and girls being sexually exploited by massive online p

Privilege  Mr. Speaker, I feel like I am living in a old-time movie. As a member of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs, and having seen a number of questions of privilege before, I know that we cannot predict the outcome of what happens in this committee. However, an iss

Indian Act  Mr. Speaker, we understand that the need for reaffiliation and membership is extremely important and that we must move forward. My question for my colleague is this. Why, after five years and after everything that has happened, did his government not take action and why is its c

Intergovernmental Affairs  Madam Speaker, the federal government continues to say no to Quebec. While there were glimmers of hope for collaboration on the immigration file this week, it only lasted four days. The minister snuffed out that hope in an interview with Le Devoir. He is saying no to requiring F

Intergovernmental Affairs  Madam Speaker, it is unbelievable. It has become an obsession at this point. Ottawa says no to responsible immigration management, no to the right to opt out of new intrusions in health, no to advance requests for medical assistance in dying, and no to the right to protect state

Indian Act  Madam Speaker, given what we know about it, I would like my colleague to explain why the government is disregarding Amnesty International's final report entitled “No More Stolen Sisters”, which was tabled five years after its initial report. We finally managed to make a bit of pr

Canada Early Learning and Child Care Act  Madam Speaker, I really appreciated my colleague's comments. Quebec has been using the early childhood centre model for 25 years. We are well aware that the role of the official opposition is to oppose, which is what it is doing. However, we know this program's value and its eco

Pierre Fournelle  Mr. Speaker, today I would like to pay tribute to an exceptional man from my riding of Laurentides—Labelle. He is a rare gem who has been volunteering in amateur hockey and baseball in the community of Sainte-Agathe for over 60 years now. Pierre Fournelle was awarded the Lieuten

Employment Insurance Act  Madam Speaker, I rise this evening to speak to Bill C‑318, which seeks to amend the Employment Insurance Act and the Canada Labour Code with respect to adoptive and intended parents. We know that when a child comes into our life, it is a huge moment that changes everything, but

Canada Early Learning and Child Care Act  Mr. Speaker, my question is very simple. Did I understand correctly? Will the Conservatives vote against the bill on the pretext that a program like this is not perfect? They will not bother to enshrine in law something that has worked for Quebec for 25 years and that could be g

Canada Early Learning and Child Care Act  Madam Speaker, I would like my colleague to know that I really enjoyed his speech. For years I was president of the CPE La Fourmilière, an early childhood centre, and I can vouch for the important role we played in helping women enter the labour market and our significant contri

Canada Early Learning and Child Care Act  Madam Speaker, I am at a loss for words this morning. For 25 years, we have been demonstrating that early childhood centres benefit women. It is very difficult for me to accept that my colleague is trying to find small flaws in our system. I am beginning to wonder whether she i

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, we can see during the debate that each party has its own position. When I talk with members, I see the difference of opinion. There are many in the Liberal ranks who agree that we need stringent requirements and an implementation team charged with making sure that th

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, when members talk, they should at least have a basic knowledge of the medical context, of what is happening on the ground. Unfortunately, it is pretty clear that we do not all have the same basic knowledge. I therefore cannot answer my colleague. Does he even know wh

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, as for that vote, I want my colleague to know that it came out to 57%. Also, the member should be careful when talking about provisions that exclude mental disorders. It is time to get educated. Tomorrow morning, I am going to talk about advance requests. Let us ima
