House Hansard - 214

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
June 15, 2023 10:00AM
Context: House Hansard - 214 - Jun/15/23
Hon. Pablo Rodriguez (Minister of Canadian Heritage, Lib.)
Mr. Speaker, my thoughts are with all those who have lost their jobs, and with their families. It is always worrisome when radio stations shut down and journalists lose their jobs. That is why we have been there from the start. We worked with the Bloc Québécois and the NDP to study Bill C‑11 and Bill C‑18, but the Conservatives did everything they could to delay the passage of those bills. Do they finally understand that their actions have consequences?

Hon. Pablo Rodriguez (Minister of Canadian Heritage, Lib.)
Mr. Speaker, our government will always be open to new solutions. We will always look at what more we can do and what we can do better. However, when we introduced the Canadian journalism labour tax credit, the Conservatives were against it. When we created the Canada Media Fund for the regions, the Conservatives were against it. When we introduced Bill C‑11, the Conservatives were against it. When we introduced Bill C‑18, the Conservatives, again, were against it. Do they understand that their actions have real consequences?
