Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, when it comes to being out of touch with regular Canadians, I will tell members what was out of touch. It was having a temporary leader who charged $20,000 to move into her temporary house and then charged Canadian taxpayers more than $5,000 for bed and bath linens

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the price on pollution is simple: Activities that cause pollution cost a bit more. However, most Canadians get more money back than what they pay, with cheques being sent to Canadians every few months. Big industry pays more than the regular Canadian pays because

Industry committee  Well, with regard to our experience in the whole situation, I think it's frankly embarrassing. The whole whistle-blowing process basically proves to us that there's a two-tier system that exists. If you are a normal, regular Canadian citizen and you go to your government

Public Services and Procurement   and the super-rich elites, all when regular Canadians are falling behind and being forced to cut out the essentials. The Prime Minister has faced multiple ethics investigations himself. Members of his cabinet seem to be embroiled in new scandals daily, and Liberal appointees are protecting

Environment committee  Let's start with this question. Where does the federal government get its vehicles from? Does it purchase them from regular car dealerships across the country, the same way as regular Canadians?

Human Resources committee   to be a place where regular Canadian issues can be elevated, debated and discussed. That's what I'm calling for. Frankly, I'm shocked he would say that it's a waste of time. I would like to call for a vote right now.

Committees of the House  Madam Speaker, never in our history has Canada been so short on housing, has rent been higher or has it been more expensive to buy a house. Never has housing been further out of reach for regular Canadians. How can the member stand up in the House of Commons with a straight

Committees of the House   are on the inside of that and making a good living. Regular Canadians have seen what has happened to the economy as a result of the government's actions, which have ruined the economy. Investment has been leaving this country in the hundreds of billions of dollars over the last eight years

Electoral Reform   differently. We are going to continue this advocacy. Here is what is in the works: Earlier this year I introduced a motion, working with Fair Vote Canada, to call for a citizens' assembly on electoral reform to take the politics out of it and to have regular Canadians come together like

Affordable Housing and Groceries Act   is doing better than many of our peer countries, that does not make the impact on the day-to-day lives of regular Canadians any less real. Several factors are driving rates in Canada, including energy prices and food prices. I have had many meetings on the issue of affordability. I have

Finance   of Canadians' hardship, resulting in record food bank usage and housing becoming unaffordable for regular Canadians. The Liberals, propped up by the NDP, just poured another $60 billion of fuel on the inflationary fire. When will the Prime Minister end his inflationary spending so

Points of Order   as the impacts to regular Canadians and the possible defaults that could happen to thousands of Canadians. That is what our leader is trying to say. The group across the way, government representatives, is being extremely disrespectful. For the benefit of all Canadians watching tonight

An Act Respecting Regulatory Modernization   for Windsor West, has spoken to this and has done good work to ensure that the science and technology is well regulated and that the processes are there to protect regular Canadians. We need to ensure that annual regulation reviews take special consideration of that level of changing

Carbon Pricing  , with the rising costs of gas, heat and food. How are regular Canadians supposed to keep up? When will the Prime Minister get rid of the carbon tax and prioritize the financial needs of Canadians?
