Canadian Aviation Regulations  Madam Speaker, I broke the rules. I wanted to acknowledge him because the Aéroports de Montréal Fire Service recognizes in this motion a unanimous desire to modernize the Canadian aviation regulations. It is urgent. They say this is a sincere and shared desire to improve safety f

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, as the saying goes, one step forward, two steps back. That is the impression I am getting from this debate.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, through you, I would like to point out to my colleague that Quebec's agriculture sector is not regulated by federal carbon pricing or the Quebec carbon market. If the Conservatives are so concerned about farmers, what is their game plan for fighting climate change

Committees of the House  Madam Speaker, through you, I would like to ask a question of my colleague, who is doing a tremendous job getting to the truth on this file. An unimaginable blunder has happened here. I know my colleague did not have enough time to finish his speech. I would like to know what me

Canada Labour Code  Mr. Speaker, is it a benefit? I dare say it is a right. It has become important in terms of regulating labour relations during disputes. We know it is a fundamental right, as I just said. Allowing this right to be fully exercised without interference forces the parties to come

Canada Labour Code  Mr. Speaker, some Quebec unions welcome this bill. I will talk only about Quebec, not British Columbia. People have already had to turn to the courts in Quebec. Quebec's legislation was passed in 1977. Of course, in 2023, the whole workplace issue has changed; I am thinking amon

Canada Labour Code  Mr. Speaker, when we say it is important to pass this bill and send it to committee, it is because we see that it would not affect federal employees. That is rather worrisome. During the last strike, federal employees who were working from home or working as subcontractors were

Canada Labour Code  Mr. Speaker, I will be sharing my time with my dear colleague from Avignon—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia. I feel like saying, “at long last”. It was about time we got Bill C-58, a federal anti-scab bill. We have been calling for one for ages. The Bloc Québécois will definitely be su

60th Finals of the 2026 Jeux du Québec d'hiver in Blainville  Mr. Speaker, on November 2, my riding of Thérèse-De Blainville received some big, exciting news.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I have a question for my colleague. In Quebec, we heat and light our homes with hydroelectric power, a clean and renewable energy. In your measures, how did you distinguish between the provinces that use less clean forms of energy and those, like Quebec, that use

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I would say to the hon. member that if Quebec had all the immigration powers that it has called for, particularly regarding temporary foreign workers, this would be the best solution. All that would be needed is to take over the powers. Yes, Quebec does have part

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I completely agree with my colleague. As I said yesterday, housing is a right. Having a roof above one's head is a basic right just like feeding oneself. As long as housing is viewed through a market lens, the needs of the most vulnerable and low-income people who

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I would like to summarize our motion as follows: We want the federal government to review its immigration targets starting in 2024. I realize the government may have a new plan tomorrow. The main thing we are asking for in this motion is consultations with Quebec,
