Mr. Speaker, it is one thing for the government to oppose any proposal from the Bloc Québécois and to accuse us of bad intentions, but can it keep ignoring the fact that many members, including some Liberals, have said they are not comfortable with using exclusion as a way to be more inclusive? That is exactly what the member for Louis-Hébert did yesterday when he called for changes to the federal rules on research chairs to prevent these kinds of situations. Will the government at least listen to reason from its own member?

Context: House Hansard - 54 - Apr/6/22
Mr. Maxime Blanchette-Joncas
  • Apr/6/22 3:17:46 p.m.
  • Watch
Mr. Speaker, there have been consultations among the parties, and I think you will find unanimous consent for the following motion: That the House recognize that inclusion and diversity must be encouraged within our institutions; that exclusion is not a method of inclusion; and that this House call on the government to revise the federal criteria for research chairs to prevent exclusion in job postings.
