Madam Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his question. Surely no one could oppose a motion that denounces greed. I wonder, however, whether it needs to go a little further. We know that Canadian companies managed to hide $381 billion in 12 tax havens this year. We know that tax avoidance goes relatively unpunished by Ottawa. I know it is more dramatic to talk about retail and grocery store profits, but I would like to know what my colleague thinks about going further and looking at tax havens.

Madam Speaker, I am happy to see my colleague defend his constituents in Saskatchewan so passionately. I have been listening to this debate. Like the member, the Bloc Québécois will support the motion. However, there is one thing I would like to know. Other than the carbon tax reduction, which seems to be a big deal here, are there other measures that could apply and that would help Quebeckers?
