Mr. Speaker, we all want to resolve the impasse in front of Parliament in Ottawa, and we want it to end quickly and peacefully. Because this government failed to act earlier, now it has to play catch-up and is invoking the Emergencies Act. The government should have emulated the provincial premiers, who managed to control the protests without any special legislation. Will the Prime Minister commit to not using any powers under the Emergencies Act in the many provinces that oppose it?

Mr. Speaker, it is the government that is being irresponsible. I will repeat my question, and I invite the leader to listen. Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Alberta and Quebec no longer want health measures. What is the government waiting for? It must commit to not forcing the provinces to impose health measures.
