Mr. Speaker, this Prime Minister's government spread false information about the number of belugas in the St. Lawrence River to justify the rejection of the GNL Québec project, which would put bigger paycheques in the pockets of people from Saguenay. We know now that that information was false and that the number of belugas is double what the government said it was. Will the government reverse its position to give jobs and paycheques to the people of Saguenay rather than sending that money to Vladimir Putin?

Mr. Speaker, the difference is that I would rather see that money go towards a paycheque for a Jean‑Marie Tremblay or a welder from Saguenay than to Vladimir Putin. In fact, the Japanese Prime Minister and the German Chancellor both asked the Prime Minister for LNG. He said, “No, call Putin. He'll provide it to you instead,” claiming there was no business case. Nobody told the Americans who have built six LNG plants at the same time that the Prime Minister blocked 18. Will the Prime Minister get out of the way so that we can turn dollars for dictators into paycheques for our people?
