Madam Speaker, I am at a loss for words with regard to this petition signed by good people from the municipality of Notre‑Dame‑du‑Laus, which reads, and I quote: Whereas: We live in the 21st century; Our astronauts travel to the moon; We are controlling Perseverance on Mars; The next generation is leaving the crib with a cellphone in hand; Cellular phone service must be considered an essential service, just like high-speed Internet; We reject Bell Canada’s approach to wait until 2024–2025 to invest in a cellular network in our village because, in 2021, being able to use a cellphone is no longer a luxury but essential for safety; We are a tourist village in a beautiful part of the country that would like to attract young families and entrepreneurs, and we should be able to ensure the safety of the tourists on our roads and of all our residents. I want to commend the 2,067 people who signed this petition.

Does the hon. member have unanimous consent to table her petition? Some hon. members: No. The Assistant Deputy Speaker (Mrs. Carol Hughes): I am sorry, but there is not unanimous consent. I would ask members that if they are looking for unanimous consent on their motions, they should consult all parties of the House. It would make things a lot easier. I know this is something we have talked about on a number of occasions regarding other members as well. The hon. member for Saanich—Gulf Islands.

Madam Speaker, I think our rules on unanimous consent are for long preambular policy statements. In this instance, where it was unanticipated that we would move to orders of the day, I did not have any opportunity to consult anyone, as I think was the case for the hon. member for Laurentides—Labelle. I understand your ruling, Madam Speaker. I just wanted to clarify that I would never try to claim unanimous consent without having canvassed all other members of this place.

Pursuant to Standing Order 67.1, there will now be a 30-minute question period. I invite hon. members who wish to ask questions to rise in their places or use the “raise hand” function so the Chair has some idea of the number of members who wish to participate in this question period. I see that many people want to participate, so I will have to put fairly strict time limits on questions and comments. The member for Barrie—Innisfil.
