Xavier Barsalou-Duval Bloc Québécois
“I appreciate that my colleague asked her questions in French. This topic is broad, and I do not have all the answers right now. A committee needs to hear from many witnesses to properly answer her questions about this space launch bill.”
“Madam Speaker, I commend my colleague for asking her questions in French. We always appreciate it when people make the effort to speak French in the House. We do not hear that very often. The presence of French is often forgotten in Canada, if not denigrated and repressed. My colleague’s question is like a burst of fresh air. As for her questions, I would say that the matter is fairly broad. That is precisely why it would be necessary to hear from many witnesses during the committee study of Bill C‑28 to ensure that we can properly address the concerns and questions my colleague has raised. At this time, I cannot claim to have all the answers to these questions.”
