Mr. Speaker, before I answer the question, I would first like to say a few words about the incident that occurred in my community of Orléans this morning. My thoughts and prayers are with all those who are affected, and I want to sincerely thank the first responders and simply tell them that I am here and that I can help them. To answer the question, the closure of Roxham Road is not a short-term solution because it does not solve the main problem. As the member opposite was saying, Canada shares the longest demilitarized border in the world. We need to modernize the agreement, and that is what we are going to do.
