moved for leave to introduce Bill C‑375, An Act to amend the Impact Assessment Act (federal-provincial agreements). He said: Madam Speaker, it is with much emotion and pride that I introduce my first bill. It is never too late to do good. This bill amends the Impact Assessment Act to provide that the federal government and the provinces may, if certain conditions are met, enter into agreements to exempt certain projects from the application of that act. Simply put, this means that for each project, only one assessment will be done to give the green light as quickly as possible to the green projects that are so badly needed in Canada.

Mr. Speaker, the housing crisis is hurting hundreds of thousands of families across Canada. TVA recently reported the heartbreaking story of one Lanaudière family: a single mother and her three children who had to leave their home and move into a garage. We are a G7 country. This is outrageous. It is small wonder that the woman said she was living through “hell” at the moment. Now the government is proposing to introduce a new tax. Even the Bloc Québécois is sold on the idea. Does anyone think it is right to introduce a new tax when hundreds of thousands of families are struggling?
