Madam Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for his speech a few moments ago and congratulate him on the quality of his French. The member asked for a question with substance, and I will easily ask a question with substance. The government waited more than 10 days before saying yes to the request of the provincial jurisdiction. Why wait so long?

Mr. Speaker, you will be pleased to hear that the opposition and the government worked in perfect co-operation today in committee. Thanks to the member for Mégantic—L'Érable, the Minister of Housing knows that July 1 is moving day in Quebec. This has been the case for the past 50 years. The Minister of Housing knows it now, thanks to us. Just because I am saying this with a smile does not make it pleasant, quite the contrary. July 1 can be the worst day of people's lives, as we have heard from folks who work with those who are struggling. The Bank of Canada has confirmed today that people will be paying more for their rent or mortgage. What is the government going to do to help them?

Mr. Speaker, every woman in Quebec, every woman in Canada, every man in Quebec and every man in Canada is suffering from this government's inflationary policies. That is what is affecting every Canadian. The reality today is that the Bank of Canada has said that the price of mortgages and rents will go up because of inflationary spending. I have a simple question. Is there anyone in this government who will clearly explain to us how $500 billion in Bloc Québécois-supported spending will bring inflation down?
