Ethics  Indeed, Mr. Speaker, I thank you for that. That is beneath the dignity of this place, where we presume all members are honourable. The member in question spent an hour at committee yesterday answering questions from the member and other members. Of course, I know the member will continue to ask those questions and I will give the same answer.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, of course Canada has among the toughest, most stringent ethics and conflict of interest provisions in the world for public office holders. The minister in question appeared yesterday before committee for one hour and answered all of those questions.

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the member opposite should be careful what he asks for, but I will reiterate, for the benefit of the House, that eight out of 10 Canadians are better off today than they were before because of the price on pollution. As a bonus, on World Environment Day, when it comes to the environment and climate change, we are making contributions to achieve our targets, and we can do Canada's part, as I know all Canadians want to do, in combatting climate change.

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, math is really not the long suit of the party over there. The PBO has specifically said and has repeated time after time, and one would think Conservatives would understand, that eight out of 10 Canadians are better off under the price on pollution in the affected provinces.

Ethics  Madam Speaker, Canada has one of the most stringent conflict of interest and ethics guidelines and rules for officials and ministers that exists in the world. The minister has complied with all of them and has answered all of the questions that the member just put.

Ethics  Madam Speaker, once again, the member knows very well that the minister has complied fully with all of his obligations under the conflict of interest and ethics guidelines. The member keeps going on, a bit like Javert, on the issue, but I guess that is the job he has been given, and that is why we have to continue to answer the questions that have been answered repeatedly.

Ethics  Madam Speaker, once again, Conservatives are really trying to reach and take wild swings. Ministers are required to submit to the most rigorous conflict of interest and ethics requirements in the western world. The minister and all ministers have fully complied with those requirements.

Finance  Madam Speaker, I am old enough to remember when the member was running under Erin “carbon tax” O'Toole. The fact is that the finance committee has a lot of work to do in passing a budget that ensures fairness for every generation. There are major investments in housing and major investments in making sure that Canadians, especially young Canadians, can get ahead in life.

Climate Change  Madam Speaker, the member is talking about disasters. I know all too well what she is talking about. Here in the Outaouais, we have experienced three 100-year floods in the last six years. What the member does not know is that we are the first and only government to have prepared a credible plan to combat climate change and greenhouse gases.
