The Economy  Mr. Speaker, these are the consequences of Liberal inflation: everything is expensive, too expensive. Groceries, gas, rent, interest rates, heating, clothing, all of our daily needs cost an arm and a leg. Liberal inflation is also a headache for Canadians just before the holiday

The Economy  Mr. Speaker, the solution is to replace the Liberal government.

Rural Communities  Mr. Speaker, rural communities have been hit hard by the Liberals' inflationary policies. Everything costs more, much more. With the triple carbon tax that is rapidly increasing because of the Liberals' incompetence, the cost of transportation in these communities has cut into f

Employment Insurance  Mr. Speaker, I would like to remind the government of Bill C‑215 on employment insurance, which seeks to increase from 15 to 52 the number of weeks of sickness benefits for cases of serious illness, such as cancer. I would also remind the government that just 15 weeks of assistan

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. As I said in my speech, with regard to the money the government spends, we want to ensure that no money is wasted, and that the goods and services we buy are paid for at fair value. We want to avoid what happened with the venti

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. On immigration, the economic statement does not actually say anything about a process to bring newcomers into Canada any faster. I do not know if my colleague is having issues in his riding, but in my riding and every other rid

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  I thank my colleague for this excellent question. At present, the ball is in the Liberal government's court. The entire House voted for the bill and the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities voted unanimo

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, today I am pleased to participate in the debate on the Liberal government's 2022 economic statement. Not surprisingly, the government is sticking to very liberal economic measures. Nothing conservative to see here. We have noticed a pattern of ongoing deficits and p

Health  Mr. Speaker, unfortunately, this government spends without restraint and without keeping track. La Presse reported that the government has purchased twice as many medical ventilators as are needed for Canadians' health. That is an expenditure of $403 million for nothing. Even

Inflation  Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government's inflationary policies are forcing Canadians to tighten their belts like never before. We have learned that 1.5 million Canadians had to turn to food banks last month alone. That represents a dramatic 35% increase since 2019. Rising interest

Housing  Mr. Speaker, this government's inflationary spending is forcing Canadians to tighten their belts. Imagine a family in Canada with a $400,000 mortgage. If they renew at 5.5%, they will have to shell out an additional $20,000 a year. Will the government give Canadian families some

Taxation  Mr. Speaker, Canadians do not want a partisan response, they want action. The cost of mortgages is going up, the price of gas is going up, the cost of groceries is going up, the cost of heating fuel is going up and everything else is going up. Will the Liberal government commit

Taxation  Mr. Speaker, the budgets of Canadian families are taking a big hit. Interest rates are going up, the price of groceries is going up, the price of home heating is going up, the price of gas is going up. In short, the price of everything we consume is is going up. Does the Prime

Public Services and Procurement  Madam Speaker, the ArriveCAN app cost Canadians a fortune and is not worth the $54 million that it cost. A good computer programmer could have easily done the job for under $250,000. It is Liberal incompetence with a $54‑million price tag, once again. Why does this government ke

Taxation  Mr. Speaker, thanks to the Liberals' inflationary taxes, Canadians are so poor now, they are less than $200 away from being unable to pay their monthly bills. This Liberal government is turning a blind eye to the cost of living, but Canadians have tightened their belts as far as
