Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I will be splitting my time with the hon. member for Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie. I am proud to support the motion, as it would help the majority of people in my riding. What will not help that majority is the current Liberal tax cut. The PBO found that the Libera

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, the rail stoppage is affecting people's jobs and livelihoods. People in London—Fanshawe, my community, have certainly commented on that, and they want a clear resolution. However, we need a real, lasting solution.

Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement Implementation Act  Madam Speaker, the government continually goes on and on about how indigenous relations are the most important relationship, that nation-to-nation building.

House debate  Madam Speaker, I congratulate you on your post as well. I was really happy to hear the previous member talk about the government's acceptance of universal pharmacare. That is something that we desperately want to work on with the government. We want to make sure it is single-pay

Student Debt  Mr. Speaker, I want to take this opportunity to thank my friends, supporters and volunteers, my family, my mom and dad and my partner, but I need to especially thank the people of London—Fanshawe for putting their trust in me to be their voice in the House. For the past year, I h

Health  Mr. Speaker, the government's refusal to defend basic access to health care for Canadians and the fundamental right to choose is inexcusable. It is failing to stand up for people in New Brunswick, who are poised to lose the only abortion provider in Fredericton. This was first ra

Post-Secondary Education  Mr. Speaker, the government talks about the importance of equal access to university and college, but it is only that, talk. Action is needed to ensure fair access to education based on a desire to learn, not on an ability to pay. While provinces are raising tuition fees and th
