Uqaqtittiji, while the federal government had many wins for some Canadians, indigenous peoples were again neglected in the federal budget. Promises for long-term funding while delaying its rollout is not good enough. For years, urgent and unmet housing needs have been spoken about in this House, yet indigenous peoples will continue to live in homelessness and in overcrowded and mouldy housing, forcing indigenous peoples to leave their lands. Why does the government continue to put indigenous peoples at the bottom of its priority list?

Mr. Speaker, there are needs throughout Quebec's health care system. The system is in crisis. The Liberals did not prioritize those needs in their budget. The Liberals prioritized the needs of the Liberals. They have not listened to Quebec's demands. Their main concern is to make sure they stay in power by maintaining their alliance with the NDP. Their priority is insuring a majority, not insuring dental care. Is the government committed to respecting Quebec's unanimous request? I repeat: It is asking for the right to opt out with full compensation.
