Parliament of Canada Act  Madam Speaker, I am going to talk about something very serious, that is, poetry. I would like my colleagues to listen. It is not that often that we talk about poetry in the House. I am not sure we ever have. It is important that members listen. I apologize in advance, because Da

Parliament of Canada Act  Madam Speaker, as my colleague mentioned, Bill S‑202 has to do with the appointment of the parliamentary visual artist. As I said earlier, I am a stage and film actor, as well as a fan of literature. I therefore agree that art should have a bigger place in our lives, even in Par

Parliament of Canada Act  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his wonderful speech. This bill may not look like much, but appointing a visual artist is quite important. We already have a poet in the House. Obviously, as an actor, as an artist who has worked in television, theatre and film, I am going t

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I would like to ask a question that I previously asked the former minister of housing, Mr. Hussen, during question period here in the House.

Black History Month Celebrations in Longueuil  Mr. Speaker, as we kicked off our Black History Month celebrations on Friday, the community of Longueuil showed just how vibrant it is by immersing us in African and Caribbean culture in the middle of a Quebec winter. I have to say that it was quite the party. There was a tastin

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I cannot make any promises. As the member mentioned, there is also a technology factor involved. I have never had my car stolen, but I have had things stolen out of my car three times in the past two years in my riding. My key hangs two feet behind the door, and t

First Nations Clean Water Act  Madam Speaker, I am not sure if I can be brief. What an absurd situation. I have been listening to the debate since this morning, and I cannot get over it.

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague, whom I like very much. Indeed, French is in jeopardy across Canada. It is rather sad to see how tough this has become. Maybe $4 billion will help, but I would like to throw a question back to my colleague. How is it that the government is going

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague. I did not mention it in my speech, but I too, like many Quebeckers, was truly insulted by the Conservative leader's remarks.

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, I would like to begin by saying that I will be sharing my time with my hon. colleague from Mirabel, whose remarks are always intelligent, relevant and even amusing, although I would not want to put any pressure on him for his 10-minute speech.

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, many things struck me in my colleague's speech. He said that no government in 50 years had invested so much in housing. I do not know the statistics, but it is possible, even probable. I wonder if he is not a bit embarrassed by the lack of results they have been abl
