Mr. Speaker, my colleague's comments are completely unacceptable. To suggest that my colleague, the member for Bellechasse—Les Etchemins—Lévis, disrespected the interpreters despite the fact that she apologized is shameful, unacceptable and should not be accepted in the House. I would ask her to withdraw that comment.

Mr. Speaker, the Liberal member clearly insinuated that my colleague showed a lack of respect for the interpreters, which is completely false. I would ask her to withdraw her comment.

Mr. Speaker, what is the “Liberal Bloc”? It is the most centralizing, costly and divisive Liberal government in history. It is the Liberal government that has no respect for Quebec, imposing programs, claiming that the Liberal occupant of the big federal seat knows best and can do better than the elected members of Quebec. It is a government that breaks ethics rules without facing the consequences, that lets authoritarian countries interfere in our elections, that gives Canadian citizenship to a terrorist. What is the “Liberal Bloc”? It is the Bloc who voted to keep this minority government in place more than 200 times. It is the Bloc who authorized this Liberal government to spend $500 billion, fuelling inflation and increasing the cost of everything. It is the Bloc that supports the Liberal government that wants to radically increase fuel taxes, ban hunting rifles and allow house arrest for violent criminals. It is the Bloc that is going to prop up the Liberal government next week against the interests of Quebec. The Bloc Québécois has gotten absolutely nothing for Quebec in exchange for its unconditional support of the Liberal government. The Bloc Québécois is the worst negotiator that Quebec has even seen. That is the “Liberal Bloc”.

Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government is having another big day. The Liberal Prime Minister is so bad for Quebec that his Quebec lieutenant has decided to jump ship in order to better stand up for Quebec. However, the position did not stay vacant for long. The leader of the Bloc Québécois was quick to put his name forward to become the new Quebec lieutenant. Negotiations did not take long. The position was open. Can the Prime Minister tell us when he plans to swear in the Bloc Québécois leader as his new Quebec lieutenant?

Mr. Speaker, we are going to cut taxes and cut cost increases for Quebeckers. That is where we are going to make cuts. The “Liberal Bloc” has made no gains for Quebec. Now, it is going to blindly support a centralizing Liberal government that is taking money out of Quebeckers' pockets to feed a big federal machine that imposes programs in areas under Quebec's jurisdiction; a government that is creating immigration chaos, pushing Quebec to the breaking point; a government that is imposing an order that will wipe out forestry jobs. Even the Premier of Quebec is begging the Bloc Québécois to vote to defeat this terrible government. Will the Liberal Prime Minister admit that his new Bloc ally is harming Quebec's interests?
