Resumption of Debate on Address in Reply May 30th, 2025

Mr. Speaker, I am glad I was able to catch your eye. I would like to express my congratulations to you.

I wonder if the member for Algonquin—Renfrew—Pembroke could comment further on the extent to which the Liberal Party campaigned on its purported plan, yet it has tabled a Speech from the Throne that contains no concrete plan whatsoever and no budget.

Natural Resources May 29th, 2025

Mr. Speaker, when the Liberal government was first elected in 2015, it killed 16 major resource projects and chased $176 billion out of the Canadian economy. This resulted in thousands of lost jobs in my city alone, and Bill C-69 continues to make it impossible to build the pipelines needed to unleash our resources and to restore our economic independence.

Will the Prime Minister commit today to cancelling Justin Trudeau's no more pipelines law, Bill C-69?

Resumption of Debate on Address in Reply May 28th, 2025

Mr. Speaker, I listened carefully to the new member's speech, and I congratulate her on her election to the House of Commons and welcome her to this chamber. She represents a suburban riding that I imagine has much in common with my own.

I wonder if she could talk a bit about some of the things she heard at the door during the campaign. She knocked on 100,000 doors during her campaign, I understand, and she probably heard a lot of stories from many Canadians who are frustrated over what has become of this country in the last nine and a half years and over the erosion of the promise of Canada that has taken place in that time period.

Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada December 17th, 2024

Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister has lost the confidence of his cabinet, of his Liberal MPs and of Canadians, while desperately clinging to power. Yesterday, they found a random Liberal minister to table the disastrous fall economic statement after he fired his former finance minister, who would not sign off on smashing through her $40-billion fiscal guardrail. That was all in order to make room for a phantom finance minister, Mark Carney.

The Prime Minister has lost control of his own government. Will he call a carbon tax election today?

Committees of the House December 17th, 2024

Mr. Speaker, on the same point of order, I drew a straight line from the substance of the debate, which dealt with international trade, and the election results. I am quite interested to hear more about the connection between international trade and the election results last night.

Finance December 9th, 2024

Mr. Speaker, it is nearly Christmas and we are still waiting for the fall economic statement and the public accounts, both of which should have been tabled in October. That is just basic management.

Canadians need to know how much debt the government is piling on. If the government cannot even manage the basics, like giving Canadians the straight facts about the public's finances, will it call an immediate election so Canadians can elect a government that will?

Finance December 9th, 2024

Mr. Speaker, the finance minister's failure to table a timely fall economic statement goes to the core incompetency of the government. Canadians need a government to axe the carbon tax, build more homes by exempting the GST from new home construction and fix the budget by getting spending under control. Canadians are tired of waiting.

Can the finance minister confirm whether she will keep her promise that the deficit will not exceed her $40-billion fiscal guardrail? Yes or no, please.

Tax Break for All Canadians Act November 28th, 2024

Mr. Speaker, over the last nine years, and in particular over the last three, we have watched the NDP enable all of the corruption and incompetence of the Liberal government. It has really been on display with how this bill came into being. The NDP and the Liberals seemed to be somewhere writing on the back of a cocktail napkin, trying to cobble together some kind of a bill that could distract Canadians from the corruption we have seen, wherein the Liberals have let insiders profit from their slush fund.

Will the member explain why the NDP keeps propping up the Liberal government?

Government Business No. 43—Proceedings on Bill C-78 November 28th, 2024

Madam Speaker, I answered his question. It contains a ridiculous premise that I reject, and so there is no answer for that question. It is a non-question.

Government Business No. 43—Proceedings on Bill C-78 November 28th, 2024

Madam Speaker, the previous government did no such thing. I reject the premise of the member's question.
