Madam Speaker, first and foremost, it is important for me to express my full support tonight for “Le communautaire à boutte” movement. Before becoming an MP, I served as executive director of the Hautes-Laurentides community development corporation for over five years. I worked closely with more than 50 organizations that provide services that government agencies cannot. These are dedicated [more]
Mr. Chair, what's the procedure in terms of submitting a witness list and what's the deadline for the clerk to receive the information and plan everything?
Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. It's very unpleasant to see what's going on. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada is looking to save $154 million by 2028-29.

What were you told about the cuts being made knowing they were going to affect competitiveness? What [more]
Do you agree this decision seems to be a strategic error?
Mr. Chair, just before we reach a consensus, which seems likely, I really want to read the amendment in French. I don't know if it was sent.
First of all, Mr. Chair, I think it would be totally relevant to invite Quebec producers to appear before the committee to discuss the consequences and challenges they face. I suggest we do that. We're doing a comprehensive expenditures review, and I'm very concerned. That's what we're studying, and I'm worried. We've talked a number of times about cost reduction, but what worries me the most is [more]
