During question period on foreign affairs, Harb Gill of the Conservatives asked the government to explain conflicting statements from the Prime Minister about why the Gordie Howe International Bridge, which he said is finished and ready, had not opened; Parliamentary Secretary Jennifer McKelvie replied that the bridge is a vital trade link with the United States and that the government is working with the U.S. toward an opening date. Alexandre Boulerice, sitting as an Independent, cited casualty figures in Gaza and conditions in the West Bank and asked the government to stop trading with Israel; Mona Fortier replied that Canada is joining Australia and the United Kingdom in a new International Peace Fund, contributing $2 million over three years to support peace between Israelis and Palestinians.Written by AI from the debate.
