Mr. Speaker, he acts like he does not have the power to stop these greedy CEOs, but he does.

Apparently, ripping people off at the grocery store is not enough. Today we learned that Loblaws is teaming up with—

Mr. Speaker, again, I know the Conservatives do not like when I take on corporate greed, but Loblaws is not content just ripping off Canadians when it comes to their groceries. Now Loblaws is teaming up with Rogers and Bell to rip off Canadians with their cellphone prices. We know they are going to limit choices, and limiting choices means higher prices for Canadians. The Prime Minister promised to lower cellphone fees. They are sky-high. He promised to lower grocery prices. They are sky-high.

When will the Prime Minister finally stop greedy CEOs from ripping off Canadians?

Mr. Speaker, Loblaws is not content just ripping off Canadians when they buy their groceries. Now it is teaming up with Rogers and Bell—

[Foreign Affairs, May 21st, 2024]

Mr. Speaker, as the minister knows, that was not my question and that was not the subject of the arrest warrant.

The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, or ICC, is seeking arrest warrants against five senior Hamas and Israeli leaders. This is an important step toward justice for Palestinian and Israeli victims.

Can the Prime Minister state clearly that Canada will support the ICC's work to hold all those responsible for crimes accountable?

[Foreign Affairs, May 21st, 2024]

Mr. Speaker, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court is seeking arrest warrants against five senior Hamas and Israeli leaders. This is a step toward justice for Palestinians and Israeli victims of war crimes.

The Liberals promised to support the ICC when 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?

[Grocery Industry, May 8th, 2024]

Mr. Speaker, neither the Liberals nor the Conservatives have the courage to take on corporate greed, which is driving up the cost of food, but we do.

While people are having a hard time filling their fridge, the Prime Minister is giving $25 million to Loblaw and Costco when they are making record profits.

What will it take for this Prime Minister to understand that these corporations that are pocketing billions of dollars do not need this money?

[Grocery Industry, May 8th, 2024]

Mr. Speaker, Canadians are struggling to put food on the table. What are the Liberals doing? They are giving $25 million to Costco and Loblaws. What are the Conservatives doing? Their leader is too busy wining and dining corporate lobbyists in private dinner clubs.

New Democrats have a clear plan, which is to tackle corporate greed. We need to make sure we bring down the prices and stop giving millions of dollars to corporate grocery stores.

When will the Prime Minister stop giving big grocery a free ride?

[Health, May 6th, 2024]

Mr. Speaker, free contraception will allow women to save hundreds of dollars and will give them freedom of choice, but the Conservatives want to block that. They want women to pay more and have less freedom. The NDP will not allow that to happen.

Will the government vote with us today to ensure that nine million people have access to free contraception?

[Health, May 6th, 2024]

Mr. Speaker, the Liberals delay in protecting women's rights. The Conservatives straight up want to attack women's rights. Last year, they brought in a motion attacking a woman's right to choose. Right now they are blocking free birth control for women. Later on this week, they are going to attend an anti-choice rally.

New Democrats want more freedom, more choices and more affordability for women.

Will the government support us in stopping the Conservatives from denying nine million Canadians free birth control?

[Grocery Industry, May 1st, 2024]

Mr. Speaker, big grocery continues to rip off Canadians, and the Prime Minister is not stopping it.

People know they are being ripped off at the grocery store and the Prime Minister has failed to protect them. Thousands of people are tired of waiting for him to act and have decided to boycott the grocery giants. What a failure of leadership on the Prime Minister's part. His job is to protect Canadians, but instead he is protecting the big grocery stores and their record profits.

When will the Prime Minister rethink his priorities?
