Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, after nine years, Canadians cannot afford the costly coalition's carbon tax, but the Prime Minister does not care. He will quadruple it, even though 70% of Canadians and seven out of 10 premiers told him to spike the hike. The Conservatives' common-sense plan is to

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, after nine years it is clear that everyone but the out-of-touch, elite NDP-Liberals knows the carbon tax is not worth the cost. Page 4 of last year's parliamentary budget office report says, “Taking into consideration...fiscal and economic impacts...most households w

Petitions  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to present a petition on behalf of the good people of Hairy Hill in Lakeland. It calls on the government to increase the tax credits for volunteer firefighting and search and rescue services. Volunteer firefighters make up about 71% of Canada's total fir

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I am not sure what the member is talking about specifically, but in good faith, he may want to clarify that no Conservative MP threw an axe through—

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, the hon. member and I disagree on nearly everything when it comes to energy policy, but I enjoy very much working with him on committee. I want to acknowledge both the Bloc Québécois and the Green Party for actually being honest about what Bill C-50, the just tran

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, after nine years, I hope that Canadians can judge me by my words and actions in the same way as the actions and words of all my common-sense Conservative colleagues. To the exclusion of almost all else from time to time, it feels that for nine years I have champio

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Ontario who has also been a reliable, steadfast and passionate supporter of energy workers. He knows, for the sector and for individuals, it benefits the entire country. Ontario has a lot at stake with BillC-50, given the negative impacts

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, last summer, Sweden paused all efforts of its official government policy toward net-zero and is ramping up the production of fossil fuels. Last year, Germany brought more coal online than ever before in history. We can quote the International Energy Agency. We ca

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, globalism is, of course, a political theory that believes in policies being designed by global organizations and then being imposed on sovereign countries through global agreements. That is what globalism is. It is where the concepts of the just transition comes fr

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, I believe that governments and politicians have to be honest about their policies and about what they stand for. Just as was the case under the former Conservative government, just as our leader says, just as all of my common-sense Conservative colleagues say, I be

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, it sure is telling that every time the NDP-Liberals get up to talk about the bill, they talk about almost anything other than Bill C-50. I think that is because Bill C-50, the just transition, is actually the culmination of nine years of the NDP-Liberals' anti-ener

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Madam Speaker, is the member not concerned about, or has she not been able to see, the government's internal memo during the discussions and consultations on the concept of the just transition? However, they are not on Bill C-50, because of course no Canadian will be heard on tha

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Mr. Speaker, the member is fully displaying his contempt for democracy and for the duly elected members of Parliament who represent our constituents in this place who may have different views and opinions from him. He actually did not apologize. He retracted and defended himself.

Canadian Sustainable Jobs Act  Mr. Speaker, that member just likened duly elected members of Parliament on the Standing Committee on Natural Resources to Brownshirts.
