Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague, the member for Saint-Laurent, for her leadership regarding the aerospace industry. Not only is the aerospace industry one of the most innovative sectors in our country, it is also one of the most important. It employs nearly 210,000 Canadians across the country. Members will recall that, last year, our government announced an historic investment of $350 million for the country's aerospace industry.
Not only will we have a thriving industry, we will have one of the greenest industries. We have already made it clear that we believe that having a national aerospace strategy will serve the nation's interests well.

Mr. Speaker, on this side of the House, we will never back down. We will always push to defend Quebec's aerospace industry. I think my colleagues are clear on that.
As I was saying to my colleague, we are in touch with the aerospace industry, we are in touch with Bombardier.
My colleague left out part of the story. Not too long ago, alongside the Quebec government, we announced the largest aerospace investment ever in Canadian history. There is plenty to celebrate in the aerospace industry. We will always be there for the workers.

Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his question.
On this side of the House, we all recognize the importance of the aerospace industry across the country, particularly in Quebec.
I have been in contact with Bombardier executives, and everyone in the House agrees that Bombardier is a leading Canadian company that we can all be proud of. We were there for Bombardier at every opportunity, and we will always be there for Bombardier, both now and in the future.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague.
We are there for the aerospace industry. We always have been and always will be.
It seems that my colleague's memory is failing a bit. He should recall that Premier Legault and the Canadian Prime Minister made the biggest announcement in Canadian aerospace history. That was just a few months ago.
We have always been there. We will be there for aerospace workers.

Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his excellent question and for the hard work that he does every day for the entire region.
I was pleased for all aerospace workers to announce that our government has awarded an $800 million contract to Bell Textron in Mirabel, Quebec, to extend the life of the Royal Canadian Air Force's fleet of 85 Griffon helicopters until 2030.
This is great news for Mirabel workers, great news for Quebec, and great news for Canada's aerospace industry as a whole.
