Mr. Speaker, manipulating statistics is a common tactic. The Bloc Québécois members are okay with it when it suits their purposes, but not when it does not. However, Canadians are looking at the situation and seeing with their own eyes what is happening outside. They are also seeing that all levels of government are assuming their responsibilities as they should. In fact, I would like to commend the Legault government for what it has done to date.

Madam Speaker, I thank my Bloc Québécois colleague for his question. I completely agree with him. The government has not demonstrated to the House of Commons that such legislation needed to be implemented.

Madam Speaker, I know I have not been able to be present for 100% of the debate here, but there is something that I have never heard from the Bloc Québécois members: an expression of concern for the people of Gatineau and elsewhere in the Outaouais, many of whom work in Ottawa and have lost jobs because businesses have closed down, public transit routes have been disrupted and the bridges have been clogged. It seems to me a bit curious that the Bloc Québécois members never talk about the people of the Outaouais, and the inconveniences and struggles they have faced during the lockdown in Ottawa.

Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for the question. I always find it interesting to have discussions with him. I would like to remind him that the Bloc Québécois needs to take a look in the mirror. It often claims to know the truth, but let us not forget that 72% of Quebeckers are in favour of us applying the Emergencies Act. That is a sign that this party must keep in mind. It is time to take action, and that is what the government is doing. We would like to have the support of the Bloc Québécois.
