The Budget  , Canada, out of the G7, had the highest amount of foreign investment. Do members know that it took Stephen Harper almost 10 years to create almost one million jobs? In less than nine years, we have created over two million jobs. I would suggest that the Conservatives are great at spin

The Budget   and a city councillor during the time that Stephen Harper was the prime minister. Members do not have to take my word for it that the Conservatives built nothing; there was an Order Paper question that I tried to table today. It asked what the Leader of the Opposition did when he

The Economy   of Canadians. It means criminals everywhere except in prison. It means affordable rent everywhere except in Canada. Why are so many things broken? The answer is very simple and very clear. It is because of this Prime Minister, who is not worth the cost. Will he put an end to the budget

The Budget   at the time was clear. Its founder, Tarek Fatah, said that this targets vulnerable and marginalized Muslims, who are told that, if they do business with non-Muslims, they will go to hell. My question is simple. Who exactly is this measure for?

Public Services and Procurement  Mr. Speaker, as our colleague from public safety has made clear repeatedly over the last few minutes, this is a matter under investigation, both internally and by the RCMP. It would be totally inappropriate for politicians anywhere in the House to try to pretend they would

Public Services and Procurement   of their questions and provide documents. As my colleague the Minister of Public Services and Procurement made clear, there are internal audits taking place. The RCMP is also seized with this issue. We think it would be appropriate to allow these investigations to conclude. I can assure

Public Services and Procurement  Mr. Speaker, the government has not cooperated because the House voted to ask for the money to be paid back, and Kristian Firth testified that the government has not taken any steps to seek the return of the money. After nine years, it is clear that the Prime Minister

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, just to make things very clear for this member's constituents, when Bill C‑75 was before the House, we proposed that the sentence for auto theft be increased from 18 months to two years. This member and all of his colleagues voted against that. We are not just

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, what the member chooses to ignore, or not listen to, is that law enforcement also says it has been crystal clear. Fentanyl is driving the crisis, and too many Canadians are dying as a result of it. People are dying alone, and the Conservatives are only concerned

2020 Shootings in Nova Scotia   of varying degrees of severity, and there is a certain lack of consistency. I would ask the Chair to come back to the House after some reflection and give us some clear guidelines as to where the line is drawn, so that when we rise to speak in the House of Commons, we are not always

Public Accounts committee  ' responsibilities when procuring professional services by integrating certain points of the guide into the mandatory procedures. In addition, the chief human resources officer is reviewing the directive on conflict of interest to ensure that the requirements are clear and effective

Environment committee   and the environment whenever they are used. We also need clear and robust regulatory actions. It is vital to enact the draft objectives for PFAS in Canadian drinking water before the end of 2024. From these drinking water criteria, we can then derive surface water, groundwater and soil criteria

Public Accounts committee  Sure. In order to execute a rapid and effective government response to the pandemic, temporary emergency contracting limit increases were brought in. However, Treasury Board was clear that as departments were lessening upfront controls in order to respond to the national public

Status of Women committee  Madam Chair, a point of order. When acronyms are used, it is not clear for the francophones who rely on interpretation. I don't know whether Ms. Larouche is wondering the same thing, but can someone tell me what the SOREM is, exactly, before we can ask questions? Thank you

The Budget  . That speaks volumes. Next to that, I would remind the member of something I said earlier. It took Stephen Harper just over nine years to create just under a million jobs. We have been able to create over two million jobs in less time. I am wondering if the member opposite can explain
