Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  Madam Speaker, good heavens. Where do I begin? Yes, the Liberal government has caused a lot of problems in this country.

Foreign Affairs   they voted for our motion in March, so will the Prime Minister and the Liberal government state clearly that Canada supports the ICC's work to hold all those responsible for crimes accountable?

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, I am glad to see the Liberal government letting the member for Winnipeg North speak. It is not often that we get a chance to hear him in the House. I simply wanted to remind everyone that, at the height of the pandemic, when a major social crisis was happening
