Mr. Speaker, the hon. member should tell his constituents that his own party's opposition day motion makes no recognition of what we are dealing with in the Middle East. He should tell his constituents back home in London—Fanshawe that the government has instituted a four-month excise tax freeze of about 10¢, which we know will be an important economic measure. He should tell his constituents in London—Fanshawe that the Conservative Party essentially stands for the return of putting leaded fuel in gas tanks. The Conservative Party is killing the policy and suggesting to stand against the clean fuel standard, which is good public policy to reduce emissions and supports farmers in southwestern Ontario; the member stands against that. Furthermore, although London—Fanshawe is a bit of a suburban riding, he should tell the people around in southwestern Ontario that the Conservative Party had absolutely nothing for Canadian farmers it its platform. I hope he encourages the member for Battle River—Crowfoot to rectify that in the days ahead.
In the House of Commons on April 14th, 2026. See this statement in context.
