“Tomorrow, 12 million Canadians will get a government payment to help buy groceries and essentials. Conservatives criticize this program because they do not care about the cost of living.”

“Mr. Speaker, what my colleague failed to mention is that, tomorrow, 12 million Canadians, including thousands of people in his riding, will receive the first Canada groceries and essentials benefit payment. This is the kind of concrete action our government is taking to help make life affordable. This is the kind of program the Conservatives disparage here, day in and day out. They should not be lecturing us. Who are they to lecture us? They are not concerned about the cost of living at all.”

“We are spending billions of dollars in Quebec. This money is for colleges, community centres, hospitals, and public transit.”

“Mr. Speaker, while the people on that side try to manufacture a crisis, we are making the necessary investments to strengthen our communities. More than $2.5 billion was announced this week for post-secondary campuses, community centres and infrastructure across Quebec. More than $1 billion over three years is being allocated with the Government of Quebec to modernize and expand our hospitals and emergency rooms, including those in rural communities. More than $6 billion is going toward public transit across the province. These are the concrete results we are delivering for Quebeckers and Canadians.”

“We are investing in major projects to build a stronger Canadian economy with provinces, territories, and Indigenous peoples. The Conservatives criticize Canada and vote against all our plans to help the economy grow.”

“Mr. Speaker, Canadians want us to build a stronger, more independent and more resilient economy in partnership with the provinces, territories and indigenous peoples. The Conservatives are ignoring everything going on around the world and in geopolitics. They are disparaging Canada. We will continue to build Canada strong. Projects like Nouveau Monde Graphite, the port of Contrecoeur, the Alto train and many others are proof of that. However, the Conservatives have voted against every measure aiming to build Canada strong.”

“Our government is getting real results. We have made major investments in airplanes, trains, mining, and billions of dollars for Quebec City.”

“Mr. Speaker, 150 airplanes at Airbus is not a diversion. A contract with Bombardier for GlobalEye is not diversion. Nouveau Monde Graphite, the largest graphite mine in the G7, is not a diversion. The high-speed train between Quebec City and Toronto is not a diversion. The $2.75 billion invested in the Quebec City tramway will have an impact. The $10 billion we just announced for the greater Quebec City area is certainly not a diversion. That is action. These are results. It is very real.”

“Our government is helping Quebec's economy grow. We are supporting the Davie shipyard, the Port of Québec, and a high-speed train project. These projects create jobs for people in Quebec.”

“Mr. Speaker, I will pick up where my colleague from Quebec City left off, because he was too modest. He did not mention the Davie shipyard or its inclusion in the national shipbuilding strategy. He did not mention the Port of Québec as the first port of arrival. He did not mention developments such as the high-speed rail project in the national capital. Quebec and the City of Quebec are benefiting enormously from this growth. They are benefiting enormously from our strategy to build a very strong Canada, to create opportunities and to create jobs for the people of Quebec.”
