Mr. Speaker, for six years now the federal government has repeatedly said that it is negotiating with the Americans on Roxham Road, but no one has heard anything about it. Who is negotiating on behalf of Canada and with whom? What are the objectives of the negotiation? How often are discussions held? When did the negotiations begin? What is the target date for seeing some results? Who does the negotiator report the hits and misses to? We want answers.

Mr. Speaker, a number of people who crossed into Canada at Roxham Road have come to my office in Montreal. Contrary to what the Bloc Québécois says, Roxham Road is nothing like an all-inclusive vacation. The Quebec National Assembly adopted a motion yesterday to denounce this insensitive and out-of-touch comparison, one that feeds prejudice. Liberal inaction on this issue has also left room for this kind of divisive and misleading rhetoric. When will the Liberals suspend the safe third country agreement so we can finally fix this?
