Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, how in the world does the defence minister not know when this vital second ship will be ready for our armed Forces?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, will the Asterix be kept in service after the first ship and the second ship delivery?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, I will repeat my question. When will the first combat ship be ready?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, when will the Type 26 new frigates being built at Irving after the AOPS be ready?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, I find it remarkable the Minister of National Defence does not have an answer for that. The Liberal government has announced plans to rehabilitate our Victoria class submarines to keep them going until 2040, which will make them about 50 years old. A retired navy commander stated, “You can modernize most things, but you can't modernize the hull, unless you build a new hull.”

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, what is the added charge going to be to taxpayers from this change in priority?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, I would like to start by thanking the defence minister. We do not see eye to eye on a lot of things, but I appreciate his good humour and his service to our country. We have heard that Canada sent pilots down to the U.S. to be trained on the Super Hornet before the debacle with Boeing and the subsequent decision not to buy the Super Hornet.

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, how many pilots did we send to the U.S. to train on the Super Hornet, which we did not end up purchasing?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, how much did it cost Canadian taxpayers for the military to train Canadian pilots in the U.S. on a plane that we were not buying?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, the government has changed its construction order at Seaspan and is now going with a joint supply ship first, ahead of the offshore science vessels. Could the minister explain why there is a change in the construction order?

Business of Supply  Mr. Chair, who ordered the change?

Indigenous Affairs  Madam Speaker, with permission of the House, I would like to table the recent Parliamentary Budget Officer's economic and fiscal update. We heard the parliamentary secretary from Global Affairs say that the $2 billion from steel and aluminum tariffs were being used to help out companies in Canada.

An Act Respecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis Children, Youth and Families  Mr. Speaker, a lot of great points are being brought up today. I believe there is a strong sincerity among members in the House to improve the lives of our first nations people. I am looking at the departmental plan for indigenous services, which was tabled in the House very recently.

The Environment  Mr. Speaker, the out-of-touch Liberals are at it again. First it was their $12-million gift to the billionaire owners of Loblaws. Now they are giving half a billion dollars to subsidize electric vehicles made in Trump's America. Now whether it is Alberta's oil sands or General Motors in Oshawa, the government seems perfectly happy to drive our businesses and jobs out of Canada.

Budget Implementation Act, 2019, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, I appreciate my colleague's comments and his humour. It is always funny watching Liberals stand up and try to explain all the great things they have done for western Canada, such as Bill C-69, the no new pipelines bill, and Bill C-48. It is amazing that we had four, now down to three, Liberal MPs from Alberta betray the people of Alberta by supporting the Liberal plan to destroy our energy industry.
