Judges Act  Madam Speaker, we know that my colleague likes to talk. I do too, but I also like to take action. What goes around comes around. As my colleague mentioned, in 2017, Bill C-337, which was introduced by former Conservative member Rona Ambrose, received the unanimous consent of the

Alexis Lafrenière  Mr. Speaker, as a lifelong fan of the Rimouski Océanic, I am very proud to point out to my colleagues that a star player from our club, Alexis Lafrenière, was drafted first overall in the NHL draft yesterday. Alexis was drafted by the New York Rangers, and after dominating the Q

Proceedings on the bill entitled An Act relating to certain measures in response to COVID-19  Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague from Kingston and the Islands for his speech. My question is very simple. I heard my colleague talk about the priority and needs of the people in his riding and all of Ontario. On September 18, the Premier of Quebec, François Lega

Suzanne Tremblay  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of our leader and all of my Bloc Québécois colleagues, I want to express our sadness at the passing of a great sovereignist and one of the first Bloc Québécois MPs. Suzanne Tremblay passed away on Saturday, and this staunch defender of our interests is be

COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Matters  Madam Chair, I would like to inform the Minister of Transport that between January 2019 and January 2020 there was a 30% increase in Air Canada flights at the Mont-Joli airport. He should check the facts before making any further claims. History has shown that public money for A

COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Matters  Madam Chair, I will be sharing my time with my colleague from Avignon—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia. The quantity and quality of transportation services in eastern Quebec and my region in particular, the Lower St. Lawrence, have been deteriorating for decades now. Whether on the gro

Canadian Dairy Commission Act  Mr. Speaker, I welcome my colleague's comments and completely agree with him. The message we must send to our producers and farmers is that we are there to support them. Every year 5% to 7% of farms are abandoned by the producers. That sends a very strong message. They are sound

Canadian Dairy Commission Act  Mr. Speaker, I am flattered. I thank my colleague for his comments. I sincerely hope he has heard the heartfelt pleas I have proudly expressed on behalf of farmers in my region. They are at the end of their collective rope because they are trying to find solutions to the problem

Canadian Dairy Commission Act  Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to speak to Bill C-16. This bill makes sense because milk storage has to align with supply and demand. As everyone knows, there is currently less demand for milk, so it makes sense to increase storage capacity. Quebec's dairy production is integral to

Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement Implementation Act  Mr. Speaker, I listened carefully to my colleague from Winnipeg North. He reiterated his support for protecting supply management a number of times. He also mentioned that nothing was perfect. The Bloc Québécois is giving him the chance to redeem himself. On February 24, my coll

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague across the way for the question. The Liberal Party has run up huge deficits over the past few years. Instead of giving money to the banks and finding solutions to stimulate the economy, we need to go back to the drawing board. With today's m

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question. Clearly, we have repeatedly criticized the government's lack of leadership. We know that it wanted to blame Quebec and the different provinces at the beginning of the crisis. We definitely presented concrete measures and solu

Business of Supply  ÔMadam Speaker, I have the honour to rise today to speak to the motion moved by my Conservative Party colleagues as part of the business of supply. We know that the agenda of the House could be affected by the result of the vote that will be held this evening on whether to adopt

2022 Quebec Games  Mr. Speaker, the countdown has begun. In less than 888 days, the City of Rimouski will be hosting the finals of the 2022 Quebec Games. From July 29 to August 6, 2022, over 3,000 athletes from across Quebec will converge on our riding. They will be competing for the highest honou

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. Enough time has passed. More than seven bills have been introduced in the past. That is completely unacceptable. Why pass this off to a committee? Several avenues have already been explored. We have repeated many times today
