Mr. Speaker, since 2016, we have lost 25,000 people in this country to a toxic drug supply. As we know, we cannot continue to take the same approach and expect different results. We need to do something to help people. The Prime Minister has agreed to take a different approach in British Columbia. If that approach is good for British Columbia, why is that not the case for the rest of Canada? Why is that not good for Montreal, for example? Why will the Prime Minister not support our bill, which will save lives?

  • Re: Bill C-5 
Mr. Speaker, Anie Samson, the former vice-chair of the City of Montreal's executive committee and now the head of public safety, said, “There is concern about the fate of our criminals in prison, when at the same time there are hundreds of families mourning the loss of a loved one.” If the Liberals continue with their reckless strategy, even massive injections of money from the provinces to crack down on guns will be ineffective. If Bill C‑5 is passed, Canadian communities will no doubt see an increase in violence. Will the Prime Minister take responsibility for that?

Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the member for Alfred‑Pellan for his question and his hard work. The past two years were extremely difficult for the tourism industry. On this national tourism week, I would like to thank the tourism industry for its resilience and for promoting Canada around the world. Whether it is about dancing to the music at the Montreal International Jazz Festival or watching Belugas in Churchill, let us showcase Canada and make it the top tourist destination for people around the world.
