Mr. Speaker, the Canada Health Act exists to ensure that Canadians across this country have equal access to quality health care across Canada. The federal government's role is to ensure that all Canadians have a good health care system. The provinces, in turn, are responsible for the health care systems, and the federal government is very happy to partner with the provinces to fund these services. We are in talks with the provinces to deliver the results and services that Canadians, including Quebeckers, expect.

Mr. Speaker, Quebeckers and all Canadians know full well that climate change is a reality we need to face. They also know that we need to take this opportunity to grow our economy by making a greener shift. That is exactly what we are doing by putting a price on pollution. It is no longer free to pollute anywhere in the country. The Conservatives want to go back to those days, but we know that we need to move forward. We need to be there to put a price on pollution and put money back in Canadians' pockets, and that is exactly what we are doing.

Mr. Speaker, what is clear to Quebeckers and Canadians is that the Bank of Canada's key interest rate has just increased for the sixth time. Now it sits at 3.75%. This will have an impact on mortgages, car loans and the money Canadians need to borrow to live decently. Inflation, accelerated by the Liberals' unprecedented spending, is eating into Canadians' wages, purchasing power and pensions. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister is turning a deaf ear and will not commit to reversing tax hikes. Will he do that?

Mr. Speaker, the the worst part is that a dental cheque discriminates against Quebeckers, who already pay taxes in Quebec to cover the cost of dental care for children. The bottom line is that Quebeckers have 23% of the children but will get 13% of this federal money. That means about half of the children in Quebec will not be covered by the NDP-Liberals' poor excuse for a program. Basically, Quebeckers pay taxes to cover their children's dental care. This new program means they will also be covering dental care for children in other provinces thanks to the NDP and the Liberals. How can the Prime Minister justify that?
