The report proposes various mechanisms to BQ): Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise in this House on behalf of implement the project without agreement from Quebec and the the Bloc Québécois to address the motions in amendment introduced provinces. by our party concerning Bill C-10. Furthermore, the report also proposes that the federal government Motion No. 1 in particular seeks to delete clause 6, which allows use legal recourse to force dissenting provinces to comply with the the use of tax havens. While the Conservative budget provides federal project. This does not fall under federal jurisdiction, yet it nothing to help the thousands of people who will be losing their jobs, wants to impose penalties on the dissenting provinces.

As the saying goes, when it havens to avoid paying billions in taxes while at the same time comes to politics, you have to watch where you step. We see what encouraging investment and job creation abroad at the expense of the Liberals and Conservatives are doing in that regard. our local businesses. Clearly, the Minister of Finance is trying to favour his friends through such generous breaks. This approach has The Bloc Québécois would like to reiterate its opposition to the become commonplace since the Conservatives have gained the creation of a national securities commission. Instead, the Bloc support of the Liberals who regularly did that sort of thing.

Now, not only is the economic situation even monitoring securities in Canada is among the best in the world. worse, but the government seems to have done everything in its power to exacerbate the unfairness.

When I was elected in 2000, one of the first issues I got involved in was bank mergers. The Bloc Québécois has always been fiercely The Minister of Finance reneged on his promise to fight tax opposed to bank mergers. At the time, if the Liberals had succeeded evasion by blindly accepting the recommendations of the Advisory in introducing this system of bank mergers with the Conservatives' Panel on Canada’s System of International Taxation.

This is the Conservatives' new when it comes to securities, and the government is trying to impose way of doing things, an approach borrowed from the Liberals.

    The road to Canada's COVID-19 outbreak, Pt. 3: timeline of federal government failure at border to slow the virus Author of the article: David Staples • Edmonton Journal Publishing date: April 3, 2020 • 29 minute read Prime Minister Justin Trudeau speaks from behind a podium bearing the hyperlink to a federal government website about the coronavirus disease during a press conference about COVID-19 in front of his residence at Rideau Cottage in Ottawa, on Sunday, March 22, 2020. JUSTIN TANG / THE CANADIAN PRESS Pt. 3, March: Trudeau attacks calls to close borders: “There is a lot of knee-jerk reaction that isn’t keeping people safe” COVID-19 exploded upon the world in March 2020, shutting down much of the economy in Europe and North America by mid-month, just as it had already done in Asia in January and February. But early in the month, the Liberal government in Ottawa clung to the notion that it must not close its borders to travellers, or quarantine them when they arrived, even as that was by then standard practice in Asia, and even as infection brought in by travellers were spreading in Canadian towns and cities. Yet by the end of the month, the Liberal policy did a complete about-face, shutting down our borders. In Parts 1 and 2, we looked at the multi-partisan in effort to dig in and question Canada‟s border policies on COVID-19. In Part. 3 of our series, the timeline is extended into March, detailing the key quotes and debates leading to the federal policy change.
