Mr. Speaker, apparently Conservatives are not aware that a unique physical address could represent an entire apartment building, but I digress. My point is, can the member name just one project that the former Conservative government built in his riding when he was a city councillor and later the mayor? I want just one.

Mr. Speaker, this summer, I, like many Canadians, watched in horror as wildfires ravaged the municipality of Jasper and Jasper National Park. Jasperites are strong and resilient, and despite the devastation, we will rebuild stronger than before. I was able to visit the wildfire command centre in Jasper with the Prime Minister, the Minister of Employment and the mayor of Jasper. Could the Minister of Employment update Canadians on how our government is supporting residents and businesses in Jasper?

Mr. Speaker, I had the opportunity as a kid to go to Jasper with my grandparents and parents. This July, I visited Jasper and witnessed the devastation first-hand. I want to thank, from the bottom of my heart, all the first responders who made sure that the destruction was not even worse. We have a historic opportunity to help Jasperites recover and rebuild faster. We have an act to amend the Canada National Parks Act, which will put the powers the mayor needs in his hands. I urge every single party in the House to vote this motion in.
