Questions on the Order Paper  Mr. Speaker, in recent years, there have been concerns about the security of employer-sponsored pension plans when the employer goes bankrupt.

National Association of Federal Retirees  Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to welcome to the Hill today representatives of the National Association of Federal Retirees. They represent more than 176,000 federal public servants, members of the Canadian Armed Forces and the RCMP, and federally appointed judges. Members all know that the call of public service is strong.

Small Business  Madam Speaker, during Small Business Week, I had the chance to attend a round table with entrepreneurs and winners of the 2018 WISE 50 over 50 Awards.

National Volunteer Week  Mr. Speaker, on this National Volunteer Week, I want to tip my hat to all the volunteers in my riding. By generously giving their time and energy, volunteers in Longueuil—Charles-LeMoyne contribute in an exceptional way to the good of our community. From serving hot lunches to seniors at soup kitchens to making sure that every child gets a toy at Christmas, they comfort the hurt and the lonely, and they fundraise for our charitable organizations.

Veterans  Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for her question. As I just mentioned, the legislative process takes time. For example, we just spent 22 hours dealing with the budget. It takes time to implement legislative measures and to put in place the processes to fulfil our promise of a pension for life.

Veterans  Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for her question and for serving our country. I sincerely thank her for all that she did when she was a member of the Canadian Armed Forces. This government takes our commitment to the members and veterans of the Canadian Armed Forces seriously.
