Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Québécois lives for bickering, so much so that it cannot understand how parties can agree and how good this is for Quebeckers and Canadians, for the fight against climate change, for reconciliation, for workers and for families. When something is good, it is bad for the Bloc, so the Bloc does not like it.

Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Québécois would like to have a moment to reply to the comments of the member, the House leader of the official opposition. In response to what my colleague from New Westminster—Burnaby mentioned earlier about the Bloc Québécois, I would say that he can see the mote in his colleague's eye, but he cannot see the beam in his own eye.

Madam Speaker, I reject the premise of the question. The member said that the motion has to do with inflation. Inflation is not mentioned in here once. Housing is not mentioned in here once. What is talked about here is the rise in the price of gas. That is the result of a war that is going on in Europe right now. This is not a result of inflation. My comment to the member is that I hope the Bloc Québécois is reflecting on the fact that the motion specifically calls on the federal government to jump into Quebec jurisdiction by affecting the Quebec sales tax. Does the member from the Bloc want to stand by that?

Madam Speaker, one of the issues within the motion that I am sure Bloc members are concerned about is that the Conservatives' proposal could be perceived as something that would take away from provincial jurisdiction regarding the tax on gas in the province of Quebec. Could the member add some further comment? The member made some reference to it, and I would be very much interested in how she perceives the motion from that perspective.
