Finance committee  This is a bit strange for the Conservatives, who would like to talk about real Canadians living outside the Ottawa beltway, that they're now talking about this arcane distinction--important in Ottawa, but not to real Canadians--between legislated tax rates and things passed

Bill C-2 (39th Parliament, 1st Session) committee   was going on in Enron. There's no protection. In fact, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which is the U.S. bill, is the main protection for whistle-blowers in Canada outside of the federal government. So we're protected by U.S. law, because there are no real Canadian laws that protect us

Extended Sitting Period   it and get it shuffled over to the Senate, that somehow that will take it off Canadians' agenda.

An Act to Authorize the Minister of Finance to Make Certain Payments   Carolina. No, tax relief benefits real Canadians on main streets, not just in urban centres but in rural towns, villages and hamlets. The NDP just does not get it.

An Act to Authorize the Minister of Finance to make Certain Payments   there is a surplus, there are only a few things that can be done with it: we can spend it, pay down debts or give it back. I know that we get criticized over here for having this ludicrous notion that we should give money back to Canadians. What I call that is investing in real Canadians

Budget Implementation Act, 2005   this, but what it means is that real Canadians are hurting every day because the government is not allowing the creative forces, the competition and the natural abilities Canadians have to compete, because of too much taxation and too much regulation.

Supply  . They are real people. They are real Canadians and they deserve to be protected as much as we possibly can.
