Mental Health and Addictions  Mr. Speaker, a pilot project was put in place at B.C.'s request. B.C. now has serious concerns about some aspects of that. We share those concerns and are addressing them. I do want to say that I do not think there is a family in Canada that has been untouched by the tragedy

National Defence committee  We're behind the other Five Eyes countries, for sure. We started ahead, and the U.K.'s leapt ahead of us. It has a technology safeguard agreement. It has the regulatory framework. It's been making investments in the infrastructure for space for development, even though it's

Jeffrey S. Marcoux  Hon. colleagues, it is with a heavy heart that I rise today to acknowledge a very sorrowful occurrence, the loss of one of our colleagues, Constable Jeffrey S. Marcoux. Over the course of several years, Constable Marcoux showed up in this place to serve, to keep each one of us

Petitions  Mr. Speaker. I rise to present a petition in which the petitioners are calling on the government to amend the Corrections and Conditional Release Act and for Parliament to pass Bill S-281, known as Brian's bill, which would do just that, such that convicted murderers would

Pensions  Mr. Speaker, I want to take this opportunity to thank all the wildland firefighters, who have done amazing work. We have been working very closely with provincial counterparts to address this issue, but one thing to make clear is that, in fact, we care very deeply about the work

Mental Health and Addictions  Mr. Speaker, if the member thinks that B.C.'s experience with open public drug use is so great, then why is she not advocating for it in her province? I was talking to a resident just two days ago from my—

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, the NDP-Liberal Prime Minister is not worth the cost, the chaos, the drugs and the crime. After nine years of the Prime Minister's extremist policies, deadly hard drugs are now available in B.C.'s public spaces, such as parks, coffee shops and even hospitals. Now

Mental Health and Addictions   sweep the pitch for needles. The legion and many businesses in Mission have to deal with crack smoke every day. When will the government do the right thing and cancel its ideologically extreme experiment to legalize hard drugs, and start protecting B.C.'s children?

Mental Health and Addictions  Mr. Speaker, the Liberal minister responsible for legalizing hard drugs is misleading Canadians. Yesterday she told Canadians that the Liberals were waiting for further information from British Columbia in response to B.C.'s request to end the legalization experiment. However
