Mr. Speaker, last week, the Minister of Public Safety—yes, him again— told a parliamentary committee that the illegal Chinese police stations in Montreal and Brossard had been shut down. The problem with what the minister said is that it is not true. Those police stations are still operating. The heads of the two Chinese police stations say that they did not receive any closure requests from the RCMP and that they are continuing to operate normally. The Liberals are obviously not taking the matter of Chinese interference seriously. This is a serious problem, a very serious problem. Can the Prime Minister tell us the truth and confirm that the Minister of Public Safety misled the House?

Mr. Speaker, as I explained to my colleague, the RCMP has taken decisive action to deal with the so-called Chinese police stations. The RCMP will continue to monitor whether there are others. I hope that all members expect the RCMP to remain vigilant on this issue. More importantly, budget 2023 allocates $49 million to deal with this matter. I hope that my colleague and all Conservatives will support the budget.
