Prime Minister of Canada

During Question Period on the Prime Minister’s record, the Bloc Québécois said the government had broken commitments on climate, culture and trade with the United States, had not done enough for Quebec industries hit by tariffs, and had shown disrespect to Parliament. The Liberals replied that the government had provided $1.3 billion for culture and accused the Bloc of wanting to break up Canada. The exchange also included remarks about the upcoming Saint-Jean-Baptiste and Canada Day holidays.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .

Mr. Speaker, our government allocated $1.3 billion to culture, yet the Bloc Québécois treats that with contempt. The real betrayal is a party that shows up in Ottawa every day to destroy my country. It is ridiculous. Since they are already in vacation mode, I wish them a happy Saint‑Jean‑Baptiste Day and a happy Canada Day.
