  • Re: Bill C-11 
Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. I am happy to agree with him once again. It does not happen very often. Bill C‑11 is fundamental. This bill showcases and supports the cultural sector. One thing that must be stressed and which members of the House need to understand is that the cultural sector is a sector that needs to be supported and promoted. We are not saying that we will provide for them. We are saying that we will help them become more visible so they can have more exposure, have higher incomes and become better known around the world. That is important. I was listening to the discussion in the House. There is talk of misinformation. As MPs, we can have differences of opinion, but if there is anything that we have the duty not to do, it is repeating falsehoods. I would like my colleague from Winnipeg North to explain to us how repeating something that is not true several times does not make it more true the next day.
