Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. We can definitely always do more. The federal government must have a good relationship with Quebec, serve Quebec and ask what it needs. I say that because these forest fires are also happening in Quebec. The federal government

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Lac‑Saint‑Jean. I think now is the time for solidarity. We have to be very careful, we have to make sure that people are safe, but also, and this is what we will be looking at later, whether the resources and equipment are adequate when sit

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague because that is a very good question. We know assessments will also be carried out after these events. Since I do not think this will be the last time we will face these kinds of forest fires, sadly, we will really have to make sure the

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, It is always a pleasure for me to speak. I consider myself truly lucky, and even honoured, to be in the House and to be able to represent my fellow Canadians. We have the power, as members of Parliament, to propose solutions and make decisions to improve our country,

Wildfires in Canada  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. Of course we need to reduce CO2 emissions, but we can do that with new technologies, not with a carbon tax. It is important to keep one other thing in mind. I would like to know what target the Liberals have met since coming

Wildfires in Canada  Madam Speaker, I think it is very important to listen, to be present on the ground if the situation becomes more urgent, to talk to the mayors across our ridings and to be aware of everything that is happening. It is also important to know where the SOPFEU is at with its operatio

Wildfires in Canada  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for the very good question. We see the importance of having adequate equipment when certain disasters happen or situations arise. The problem is that often the situation has not been anticipated, and we do not think about what equipment is nee

Wildfires in Canada  Madam Speaker, I will be sharing my time with the member for South Shore—St. Margarets. I am usually pleased and honoured to rise in the House to speak. Often, I am called upon to speak to issues of the day. I am always grateful for the opportunity I have to speak out against th

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, Liberal inflation has made it so that Canadians' paycheques are no longer stretching far enough to make ends meet. The Liberals already have a carbon tax that has raised the cost of gas by 41¢ a litre. Now we find out that they are going to add another tax on top of

Carbon Tax  Mr. Speaker, I want to paint a picture of what Canada looks like after eight years under this Prime Minister. It is not pretty, even though the Prime Minister thinks that everything is fine. Canada is experiencing the worst inflation in 40 years. Housing is unaffordable and foo

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for a very good question. I can tell him one thing. We heard an Olympian testify at committee. She is involved in sport shooting. She said that she would no longer be able to play the sport she loves so much because the exemptions are very lim

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, the member for Lac-Saint-Jean is clearly a team player. He is defending his colleague on this. However, I want to make one thing clear. The Bloc Québécois went and did its job because it knew it was going to lose votes in the regions and it would not get re-electe

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I would like to remind my colleague that, at first, she fully supported Bill C-21. She even felt that Bill C-21 did not go far enough. Then, at some point, she saw people everywhere on social media saying that the bill had missed the mark and that it would be danger

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, many hunters in my riding are very nervous about Bill C-21. Their concerns are not unfounded. Bill C‑21 is the biggest attack on hunting rifles in the history of Canada. Hunting is part of Quebec's ancestral traditions. In our province, hunting is an important cu

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate my colleague for her speech. That called to me when she said that they listened to people, hunters and so on. I remember very well that from the beginning, they were in complete agreement on Bill C-21. One of her colleagues was even in favour of amend
