Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  Nine out of 10 are paying more taxes than they were before this Prime Minister took office. Middle-class young people can no longer own a home, and 76% of them believe they never will. In addition, more people are using food banks than ever before in our history. Canada has had the worst GDP growth of the G7 since 2015, and the decline continues even now.

Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  When will the Liberals finally consult with those living with disabilities? When will they ensure that people living with disabilities are no longer legislated into poverty?

Lisa Marie BarronNDP

Transport committee  You talked about pilot shortages, and you talked about capacity. If you have to fly four flights to replace the one jet that no longer can fly into a gravel runway, you need four times the crew. You talked about $140,000 to train a pilot. Often the small rural or regional airlines train the pilots, who are then immediately poached to the more profitable bigger airlines.

Finance committee  What we've seen, including from the economics department, is that we have taken more of an advocacy role in the policy space as well, weighing into looking at some of these issues, some of the numbers, in terms of that longer-term trajectory that we're on and looking for policy solutions that benefit all Canadians, because a thriving economy is good for Canadians and it's good for banks.

Finance committee  What happened during the pandemic was that the stress spread out across Canada. Now you can arguably say that what we have is a national housing crisis. It's no longer a localized one. Fundamentally, as was said before, it is an imbalance between demand and supply. The supply side has been unable to adjust or respond quickly enough to the very strong demand we've had over the last many years.

Status of Women committee  Historically, that may have been true, but every year we're achieving advances in systemic therapy of breast cancer, where that's no longer the case. Even in the worst actor of triple negative breast cancer, where even a small subcentimetre node-negative tumour gets chemotherapy, one that's larger than two centimetres or has lymph node involvement will have immunotherapy and a more aggressive chemotherapy.

Dr. Moira Rushton

Finance committee  That market psychology drove prices well in excess of underlying income, interest rate and demographic fundamentals, which we think are the root of house prices in the longer term. Higher interest rates have since broken that psychology and have pulled prices down by 20% or more in some markets, but affordability won't necessarily improve until rates fall further, prices fall further or incomes are allowed to gradually catch up over time.

Transport committee  There are, of course, good reasons for charging some of those fees, but when the companies we compete with can sell tickets for half price, because they offer fewer of them, the market is no longer competitive. As I was saying, there's a certain irony involved in subsidizing ticket purchases. We're saying we're going to use taxpayers' money to subsidize the purchase of tickets that consumers otherwise can't afford so they can pay $500 for a ticket.

Finance committee  The first part is that we saw it coming, and we developed a regulatory guideline on third party risk management, which should help the banks we regulate manage new relationships that will come as a result of open banking. Longer term, we have to be watchful that, if those new players do decide to innovate beyond their immediate business model, which is to enable, effectively, customers to own their own banking data, and move from that model to one that involves taking deposits and making loans, they do that in a regulated space.

Peter Routledge

Transport committee  In the first year, there can be a risk management exercise involving so many millions of dollars, and that number would decline each year until the connection is fully profitable and the company no longer needs public funding.

Information & Ethics committee  Now it's left to Mr. Boissonnault and his colleagues at this company, which he supposedly no longer has any dealings with, but still receives 50% ownership and, ostensibly, payouts to the extent that we aren't fully clear about.... I don't think there's a Randy. The onus is going to be on this company to prove there is, not on us to prove there isn't.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Its purpose was to prevent certain lapses from recurring. In my humble opinion, the circumstances that existed in 1984 no longer apply in 2024. The world has changed. Canada's image has changed and the threats we are facing have changed, not only in terms of complexity and the number of stakeholders responsible, but also the impact they have on the everyday lives of Canadians and Quebeckers.

Status of Women committee  Please take note of the following preventative measures in place to protect the health and safety of all participants, including the interpreters. Please use only the approved, black earpieces. The former grey earpieces must no longer be used. We need to be mindful to keep the earpieces away from the microphones at all times. When you're not using your earpiece, please face it down on the sticker placed on the table for this purpose.

Natural Resources committee  Interconnecting larger areas provides greater diversity of supply for a larger region and provides greater ability for surpluses in one area to offset shortfalls in another. Interconnecting hydro power-producing areas with their neighbours extends the reach of hydro power reservoir storage more broadly. Interconnecting areas with high quality, variable renewables extends their market reach and improves their business case during periods of low demand in their own market.
