Mr. Speaker, they want to bring in 100 million people by 2100. Everyone in Quebec can see that the so-called Century Initiative is nothing of the kind. Quebec's premier even declared it a threat to our nation. Quebec's National Assembly adopted not one, not two, but three unanimous motions against these targets. Every elected representative in Quebec is against them. These people are not big bad nationalists. They simply are not willing to see Quebec transformed in such a radical way without debate and without their input. Will the government commit to not increasing immigration to reach 100 million citizens by 2100?

Mr. Speaker, all parties in the House have recognized the Quebec nation, yet today they are unable to respect the Quebec nation. The Liberals are adopting immigration targets that are unanimously opposed by the Quebec National Assembly. The Conservatives, meanwhile, say they will determine their targets based on business demands, not the will of Quebeckers. The NDP says, “Quebec? Who cares?” Will Quebeckers from the other parties stand with their nation and say no to these targets of 500,000-plus people a year?
