Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the member for Alfred‑Pellan for his question and his hard work. The past two years were extremely difficult for the tourism industry. On this national tourism week, I would like to thank the tourism industry for its resilience and for promoting Canada around the world. Whether it is about dancing to the music at the Montreal International Jazz Festival or watching Belugas in Churchill, let us showcase Canada and make it the top tourist destination for people around the world.

Mr. Speaker, nothing says, “Happy Tourism Week” like the arbitrary, unjustified extension of the restrictions and mandates in Canada's airports. Airports, airlines, chambers of commerce and health experts have all called for an end to mandates, and, this week, even members of the Prime Minister's own caucus said that these restrictions do not make sense anymore. What was his response? He doubled down. What more will it take for him to finally do the right thing, do his job, clear the backlogs in our airports and give Canadians their rights back?
