Mr. Speaker, the north shore produces more electricity than any other administrative region in Quebec and, I believe, more than any other place in Canada.
However, the Government of Quebec has never received a penny from the federal government for Hydro-Québec. We never needed federal government help for that, not then or now. I think that my riding is doing just fine without federal involvement in Hydro-Québec. We do not need Bill C‑5 to build hydroelectric plants.
If the government really wants to look into what goes on in my neck of the woods, I would point out that some people in my riding live in areas where there are no roads, no docks, no air transportation and no bridges for getting home. They live on islands, and they are isolated. It would be an excellent idea to look into that.
