Mario Beaulieu Bloc Québécois
“We will not vote against this bill because Quebec agreed to it. Still, the government should just send housing money directly to Quebec instead of creating a new agency to do work that existing agencies can already do.”
“Mr. Speaker, I have a question that has already been asked, but I do not think the answer was adequate: Why replace existing bodies, such as the CMHC, that could very well have fulfilled the same role? Essentially, we are not going to oppose the bill since an agreement has been reached with the Government of Quebec, but it would have been much easier to simply transfer the money to Quebec.”
