Office of the Auditor General Madam Speaker, the Liberals awarded an untendered contract worth $900 million to their friends at WE Charity. They awarded another untendered contract worth $237 million to Frank Baylis, who was still a Liberal member of the House just last year. How many other similar contracts

Bills of Exchange Act Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Parkdale—High Park for his speech. I felt that there was some openness. Personally, I would like to know what the procedures are. My colleague talked about his experience at the Department of Canadian Heritage. He also mentioned the Truth

Business of Supply Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. The Bloc Québécois supports this motion. In May, I was in the House and I questioned the Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry on the problems associated with commercial rent. We already knew at that point that the pro

Business of Supply Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Cloverdale—Langley City for her speech. Indeed, the Bloc Québécois is in favour of that. In our view, these famous amendments should have come long before now, because they are essential for the economic well–being of the people in our comm

Income Tax Act Mr. Speaker, I listened carefully to the speech given by my colleague from Courtenay—Alberni. There are some things we agree on but others we do not. The Bloc Québécois supports Bill C-9. We think that the criteria for the Canada emergency wage subsidy should have been changed

Judges Act Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. The interpretation has been working only intermittently or not at all for a while now. It is impossible to understand.

Judges Act Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. Of course it is necessary to train judges to ensure they have increased knowledge and awareness when dealing with cases of sexual assault. That is something that the Bloc Québécois supports. However, there is another skill that

Broadcasting Act Mr. Speaker, this is a serious matter, and yet the government is not moving from words to action. What is the federal government waiting for? We still have questions, and I think they are worth asking. We have been talking about medical assistance in dying since the beginning of

Citizenship Act Madam Speaker, the Bloc Québécois supports the principle of Bill C-8, and we certainly support a nation-to-nation dialogue with the first nations. However, we believe the citizenship oath made to the Queen, to the monarchy, must be changed. It is repugnant to Quebeckers. It is a

Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act Madam Speaker, there is the climate emergency, but I would say it is more like a pathetic emergency. This bill is missing important pieces of the puzzle. First, there are no greenhouse gas reduction targets. The government will set its own targets every five years. It already do

Tourism Industry Madam Speaker, tourism has been one of the industries to be hit the hardest by COVID-19. We can all agree that the tourism, restaurant, event and hotel industries for the most part do not even have the right to open their doors according to public health guidance. Eight months in

Tourism Industry Madam Speaker, it is really something that federal assistance does not meet the needs of the industries hit the hardest by COVID-19. We are talking about an industry that was paralyzed in the spring, that is paralyzed today and that is hearing that next summer will also be diffic

Business of Supply Madam Speaker, I listened carefully to my colleague's speech and I see that he is still quite skilled at acrobatics and making it seem as though the government is doing great things. I will, however, give him two facts on this good working relationship he claims the government h

Business of Supply Madam Speaker, I listened carefully to my colleague's speech. I would like to ask him about the federal government's vision and the Conservative vision. Allow me to explain. Canada and Quebec were once scientific research hotspots. Sadly, that is no longer the case, and that is

Business of Supply Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Kingston and the Islands for his speech. I really liked some of the words that he repeated several times, including the word “tourism”. I am the proud Bloc Québécois critic for tourism, and I think that I have a good handle on the file.
