Online Streaming Act  Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his speech and his contribution to today's debate. I understand that my hon. friend from Perth—Wellington has a rather vibrant cultural industry in his riding. The only question that comes to mind is this: What did he say to the cultur

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Mr. Speaker, I just loved my hon. colleague's speech. I believe he spoke from the heart. He was very sincere. One of the things he talked about was division. I have to agree with him on that. Because of this government's policies, we are seeing a lot of division right now all acr

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his speech. I would never want to silence him. I hang on his every word when he gives a speech in the House. He is one of my favourites. Now, he and I do actually agree on one thing. The government's handling of this crisis has been a d

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Mr. Speaker, I understand that my hon. colleague is giving a pre-election speech for the leadership race, but the House is currently studying Bill C-8. Freedom is important to the Bloc Québécois. That is why we want Quebec's independence.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, that is what we call teamwork. I thank my colleague from the NDP for that very important question. Let us not forget that in the last budget the government said it would address tax evasion. It seems like the Liberals have been talking about that for decades. The

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for his extraordinary question, but I do not have enough time to answer, because it would take me at least half an hour. I will name one that is obvious these days, namely health transfers. That is something concrete. The federal

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I think it is amazing to hear one of my Liberal Party colleagues say that we must absolutely respect an agreement from 1880 and possibly amend it, while also asking us to respect the Constitution Act, 1982, which Quebec has never signed. The Liberals have never ope

Business of Supply  What a pleasure to see you again, Madam Speaker. I think this is the first time I have had the opportunity to address you in the chair, and it is a great privilege. Once again, congratulations on your appointment. Before I begin, I would like to thank the hundreds of people in Q

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Mr. Speaker, I was afraid I would not get my turn. I sense a bit of a lack of discipline on my right. I think having a leader would be good for them. Right now, it looks as though the Conservative Party has no clear position on the vaccine. I sensed some unease in the House duri

Economic and Fiscal Update Implementation Act, 2021  Mr. Speaker, what a wonderful, passionate, sincere speech my colleague just gave. We do not always agree on everything, but he spoke from the heart. I think he and I have observed two facts. Any social worker or economist would agree that, regardless of the government's attempts

Foreign Affairs  Mr. Speaker, it is strange that Canada is participating in a diplomatic boycott of the Olympics, yet this government is unable to tell us why. It does not have the courage to tell us that it is because China is committing genocide against the Uighur people. It does not want any i

Foreign Affairs  Mr. Speaker, the opening ceremony for the Olympic Games in Beijing is this Friday. The entire world will be celebrating the glory of China, even as the country commits genocide against Uighurs, its own people. We cannot blame the athletes. It was this government, not them, that
