Rhéal Éloi Fortin Bloc Québécois
“It is rare that all parties agree like this to help our communities. I want to know if my colleague thinks we can keep putting party politics aside to work together in the coming weeks.”
“Mr. Speaker, this bill, and the story and circumstances surrounding it, are moving. There is something special about it. My colleague is right to point that out. It is not often that everyone in this House can agree on something. It does happen, though not often enough for my liking, that we are all able to agree on doing what needs to be done for the benefit of the community as a whole. I will, of course, be giving a speech shortly. Unfortunately, it will probably be to repeat what I have already said. For now, however, I would like to ask my colleague a question. In his opinion, is this something that could happen again, at least in the coming weeks? Could we all set aside considerations that are sometimes a little too partisan and work together to do what is best for all our communities across Quebec and across Canada?”
