Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question. I want to reiterate that we must do something quickly to make sure that what Mr. Nadeau went through never happens again. Nothing should be happening against the person's will. This bill will allow us to take action and to

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague. It is appalling to think that people are still being discriminated against not only by parents or religious organizations, but also at work. I sincerely hope that the amendments in this bill are made. I mentioned that it is important to be r

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I will be brief. I really appreciated my colleague's entire speech because, as parliamentarians, we cannot specialize in every field. That being said, I clearly understand that there is a time issue, that we have our heads in the sand and that we are lagging behind

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2020  Madam Speaker, I am honoured to be the first in my party to speak, since this is a topic the Bloc Québécois has been looking at in response to a number of identity theft issues.

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2020  Thank you, Madam Speaker. I provided a brief overview of this issue because safeguards have already been implemented in over 30 countries.

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2020  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. The Bloc Québécois is obviously in favour of a bill to protect the fundamental rights of Quebeckers and Canadians. That said, it is important that several proposals be presented in committee. While we are at it, we will ensu

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I will be brief. What does my colleague think I should say to my constituents when I return to my riding of Laurentides—Labelle? All the provinces have called for an increase in these health transfers. What will it take for the government to understand that not onl

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, there is a problem with the interpretation.

Justice  Mr. Speaker, our work on medical assistance in dying is being held hostage by the Conservative religious right, and this should serve as a lesson. This illustrates why religion should be kept as far away as possible from the affairs of the state. Having a secular state is fundam

Emancipation Day  Mr. Speaker, I would like to begin by thanking my hon. colleague for his speech and the friendship that is clear to all of us today. I am going to talk about Motion No. 36 to designate emancipation day. My colleague talked about education, so I am going to take this opportunity
