Business of Supply Mr. Speaker, I will be brief. Earlier I asked my colleague opposite about the wage subsidies for struggling organizations and businesses. All of the political parties, with the exception of the Bloc Québécois, received wage subsidies. My colleague opposite said that they would p

Business of Supply Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask my colleague two questions about the benefits of the Canada emergency wage subsidy. First, how can my colleague boast that the improvements were proposed by the Conservative Party, when they were actually proposed by the Bloc Québécois at the Sta

Business of Supply Madam Speaker, we are trying to do whatever we can to save our businesses and reduce this unprecedented debt. I have a question for my hon. colleague. My question is about the Conservative Party's solutions and promises around economies of scale. The member's own leader said it

Health Mr. Speaker, here is another example of the government's mismanagement of the hotel quarantine process. The rules apply to travellers arriving by plane, but not to those arriving by land. The upshot is that people are flying to Burlington and then taking a bus across the border

Business of Supply Mr. Speaker, the answer is yes. They received a one-time payment of $500. That was short-term relief. What else can they expect? A simple calculation shows us that they ended up with just a few bucks. It is not for nothing that we are asking for an increase of $110 a month. It

Business of Supply Mr. Speaker, I am not going to get into statistics because I gave enough of them in my speech. However, I do want to point out that the amount given to these seniors, who opened doors for us and to whom we are indebted, is equivalent to 1%. If we take into account all of the mo

Business of Supply Let us look at the facts, Mr. Speaker. People are being told that, if they do not have enough money, there are other resources available to them, such as food banks and community services and support. Come on. It is shameful how these people are being treated when they do not ha

Business of Supply Mr. Speaker, I will be sharing my time with my colleague from Jonquière. We have heard a lot today about the financial situation of seniors. I would have liked to have all day to talk about all of the calls my office gets from constituents. Although our riding offices are closed

Canada Revenue Agency Mr. Speaker, thousands of people receive their T4 slip and then realize that fraudsters have claimed the CERB using their name. The government does nothing. People spend hours on the phone to no avail. It is easier to get someone's personal information to commit fraud than to ge

Canada Revenue Agency Mr. Speaker, the Canada Revenue Agency is neglecting victims of CERB fraud. I spoke with parents whose three children were victims of fraud. They are spending hours on the phone, only to be told that the CRA can only deal with one file at a time and that they have to call back l

Criminal Code Madam Speaker, my colleague's remarks and explanations were amazing. I truly appreciate him. I want everyone who is concerned about abuse, victims or the process to know that I was with my father at the end of his life, with my uncle and with a quadriplegic friend who wanted not

Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2020 Madam Speaker, I would like to take a few moments to explain what I did last week. I took the bull by the horns and spent my week in my riding's three regional county municipalities, namely, Antoine-Labelle, Laurentides and Pays-d'en-Haut. I met virtually with 150 businesspeople

Committees of the House Mr. Speaker, first, I want to commend my colleague for her very clear and heartfelt message. In the past few weeks at the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics, we also made a lot of observations by looking at what is happening with Pornhub, as well as

Committees of the House Mr. Speaker, it is indeed 2021. Proposals were put forward in previous Parliaments, including a bill introduced in the 41st Parliament that did not receive royal assent. A national day is a day that causes us to reflect, but what does my colleague think of the urgent need to enf
