Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives are saying that we helped Canadians too much. I would like to know when and where they would have made cuts. Was it when we were helping with the wage subsidy that they would have cut? Was it when we were helping seniors that they would have cut? Was it when we were helping families that they would have cut? Was it when we were helping people who had lost their jobs that they would have cut? I would really like to know at what point exactly would they have turned their backs on Canadians.

Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Québécois holds the international title for sanctimoniousness. If my colleague had looked at the relevant documents, he would have seen that, between 2017 and 2020, the Government of Canada contributed $374 million to address the situation at Roxham Road. Quebec just gave us the bill for 2021-22. Obviously, we are going to sit down together and do our part. We are also covering asylum seekers' health care costs. We are here and we are working with Quebec. The Bloc Québécois may not like it, but we are keeping our commitments.
