Marie-Hélène Gaudreau

Thank you, Mr. Chair. At the beginning of my remarks, which was an hour and a half ago already, I was really talking about the principle. I still agree with that principle. I obviously learned that the agreement in principle was public, although I had read it on July 22. So I've had an hour, and I must admit that I didn't listen to all the speeches, but I can tell you that I've been working [more]

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. I was on a fact-finding mission last week with the Standing Committee on National Defence to assess our equipment, our operational readiness and the impact of cost increases. Of course, we talked about NORAD. So when this came up in the media, of course people in my region pointed out that this wasn't happening in Quebec, but who paid the $6.4 billion? All [more]

Can you tell us today whether, over the past 12 months, Canada Post has communicated with all the municipalities potentially affected by any current or potential changes to the postal network and by the lifting of the moratorium? Has there been an official letter sent to those municipalities?

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. Mr. Ettinger, we're talking about consultations. What consultations have been held to date?

That's why we need the list. I live in a rural community. Last week, two mayors reached out to me. They're looking for information and they don't have any, or very little. That said, we can provide information proactively. I learned today that the general public is looking for information. There are partners who are asking a specific question, and they don't know where we stand. They also don't [more]

I'm an entrepreneur. My business is my money. We're talking about a public service here. Communities right across this country want accountability. Since Canada Post is a Crown corporation, as I said, I expected the process to include a dialogue with regional representatives so they feel part of the process. I hope to see that in the coming weeks. We have to be informed. At the end of the day, [more]

Mr. Ettinger, the answer is yes or no. Will you table all of that with the committee?

How is it that—

When will you do it?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. That's really disappointing.

What about municipalities?

Could you provide us with a list of the partners who have been consulted since the reform began?

Is it ready? Can we see it?

It covers four million addresses in Canada, I believe. That's what we were told. Is that correct?

I have a point of order, Mr. Chair. I can't hear the interpretation.

That's for the general public.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Good morning, Mr. Ettinger. Thank you for being here. I have to tell you that I'm uncomfortable. You received the mandate on September 25, 2025. It is now June 18, 2026. Today is the last day of parliamentary business. This committee has waited until now to get some interesting information. You are appearing before us during one of the biggest transformations at Canada [more]

Mr. Ettinger, my concern is not just about the content. It's also the way it's being conducted. It seems that some decisions are being made behind closed doors or are revealed in dribs and drabs when they may already have been made. Do you understand why many observers feel that this transformation is taking place behind the scenes rather than in the open? Can you provide the committee with a [more]

With all due respect, Mr. Ettinger, this is Parliament. Canada Post is a Crown corporation. I meet regularly with mayors, reeves and elected municipal officials, and that's not what they're saying. They're wondering what's going to happen. They're looking for information. Even we, as parliamentarians, are asking questions without getting a clear answer. Can we have the respect of a Crown [more]
