International Human Rights Act  Madam Speaker, before I begin my speech, I would like to take a moment to wish a happy Thanksgiving to all members and all employees of the House of Commons. I hope everyone has an opportunity to spend time with their loved ones this holiday weekend.

Copyright Act  Madam Speaker, when we have private member's hour and we are debating, we sometimes pay attention and we sometimes do not. This has been a really interesting conversation.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, coulda, woulda, shoulda: there are a lot of things that happened in the past, but we know that right now Canadians are suffering.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I want to acknowledge the excellent work of the Parti Québécois in establishing the early childhood centres.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, the reality of war has absolutely impacted inflation, the costs and availability here in Canada of oil and gas, and so on.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, when I go to my local IGA, I too notice that three or four of the checkout counters have now been replaced by self-serve checkout counters.

Human Rights in Iran  Mr. Speaker, in recent weeks, many of my constituents have written to me to express their horror at the terrible situation currently unfolding in Iran.
