Vacant positions are not being filled, which weakens the whole supply chain. Given that just one missing crew member can bring an entire vessel's operations to a standstill, it is vital that we do everything in our power to ensure that we have new people to fill those positions in the marine industry and in our supply chains that depend on it. The government already held consultations in that regard in the spring.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881243\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The bill that I am introducing today will be of real assistance to the government. It is a ready-made bill that proposes real action to solve a real and immediate problem that the government is already aware of. I therefore invite the government and all members of the House to set partisanship aside and accept the help that I am offering today so that we can work together, help, support and ensure the sustainability of our marine industry. Let us pass this bill quickly to save our marine industry and ensure that it has the labour force it needs.</p>\n<p class=\"procedural\" data-HoCid=\"4\"> (Motions deemed adopted, bill read the first time and printed)</p>",
"fr": "<p class=\"procedural\" data-HoCid=\"7881240\"> demande \u00e0 pr\u00e9senter le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"12537502\" href=\"/bills/44-1/C-346/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Canada Shipping Act, 2001 (certificate of competency)\">C\u2011346, Loi modifiant la Loi de 2001 sur la marine marchande du Canada (brevet d\u2019aptitude)</a>.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881241\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> \u2014 Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, aujourd'hui, je d\u00e9pose ce projet de loi pour les travailleurs et les employeurs de l'industrie maritime. Au Bas-Saint-Laurent et \u00e0 plusieurs endroits au Qu\u00e9bec et au Canada, c'est une industrie cl\u00e9 qui permet de faire travailler notre monde, mais aussi de meubler notre quotidien.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881242\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Aujourd'hui, l'industrie fait face \u00e0 une p\u00e9nurie de main\u2011d'\u0153uvre majeure. Des postes sont ouverts, mais ne sont pas pourvus. Cela fragilise l'ensemble de la cha\u00eene d'approvisionnement. Quand on sait que l'absence d'un seul membre d'\u00e9quipage peut freiner l'op\u00e9ration d'un navire entier, il est d'une importance capitale de tout mettre en \u0153uvre pour assurer la rel\u00e8ve de l'industrie maritime et de nos cha\u00eenes d'approvisionnement qui en d\u00e9pendent. Le gouvernement a d\u00e9j\u00e0 tenu des consultations \u00e0 ce sujet au printemps dernier.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881243\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Le projet de loi que je d\u00e9pose aujourd'hui est litt\u00e9ralement une passe sur la palette pour le gouvernement. C'est un projet de loi cl\u00e9 en main qui propose une mesure concr\u00e8te pour r\u00e9soudre un probl\u00e8me r\u00e9el, imm\u00e9diat et connu du gouvernement. J'invite donc le gouvernement et tous les coll\u00e8gues \u00e0 la Chambre \u00e0 mettre la partisanerie de c\u00f4t\u00e9 et \u00e0 saisir la main que je tends aujourd'hui pour collaborer, aider, soutenir et assurer la p\u00e9rennit\u00e9 de notre industrie maritime. Adoptons le projet de loi rapidement pour sauver notre industrie maritime et assurer la main-d'\u0153uvre.</p>\n<p class=\"procedural\" data-HoCid=\"4\"> (Les motions sont r\u00e9put\u00e9es adopt\u00e9es, le projet de loi est lu pour la premi\u00e8re fois et imprim\u00e9.) </p>"
