Climate Change Mr. Speaker, no measure to combat climate change by the Liberals can make up for Trans Mountain's impact on the climate. None of this government's environmental claims will ever speak as eloquently as its huge pipeline filled with tar sands oil. All the carbon taxes, the heat p

Climate Change Mr. Speaker, today is the day that this government's greatest contribution to global warming comes on line: Trans Mountain. With this pipeline, the Liberals have ensured that oil dependence will continue for decades more. All the Prime Minister's rhetoric will never erase the sim

Firearms Mr. Speaker, the government has announced its decision to once again postpone the mandatory buy-back program for assault weapons. Since Canada Post refuses to accept the prohibited weapons, and since Ottawa has once again failed to plan this program properly, the Liberals have de

Firearms Mr. Speaker, if no assault weapon buy-back program is instituted within the next year, we will have lost a decade of work, and public safety will continue to be jeopardized for another decade. The Liberals have no right to betray their commitment at this point. They have no right

The Budget Madam Speaker, the government's budget states the following: “To keep our streets safe today and tomorrow, the federal government banned assault-style firearms in 2020”. First of all, that is not true. The government banned certain assault-style firearms, but not all of them. Th

The Budget Mr. Speaker, the Fisheries Minister and colleage of the member from Richmond-Centre mused to our local media that I have not read the budget. Not only have I read the budget, but I even read the mini-scenarios the government uses in its budget to explain a budgetary measure it

The Budget Mr. Speaker, the government loves to compare itself with other countries, especially other G7 nations, and say that Canada's economy is on track. Speaking of tracks, Canada is one of the countries that invests the least in sustainable transportation and public transit. Canada i

The Budget Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for the opportunity to speak on this. Normally, I like to deconstruct the budget from the standpoint of the fight against climate change. Now I am doing so based on my region. What I notice is that, indeed, there is not much in this budget for th

The Budget Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague, since I was unable to address half the topics I wanted to. I was talking about support for the fishing and tourism industries, and I was going to say that it is startling to see that there are no additional investments for the re

The Budget Mr. Speaker, I will be sharing my time with the member for Jonquière. I am very pleased to be discussing the budget today. We have read it, and it looks more like a Liberal election platform than real fiscal policy, which is exactly what we feared. We in the Bloc Québécois had m

The Budget Mr. Speaker, I was reading an article in La Presse that highlighted a win for the Liberal government's budget. At first, I thought it was a good idea too. I am talking about the Canada learning bond that the federal government created in 2004. It helps parents save for their chil

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Mr. Speaker, there is a way to be responsible both at the borders and towards the entire fishing and processing economy in the Gaspé Peninsula and eastern Quebec. We simply have to work sensibly and without partisanship. The collaboration of the Minister of Immigration is commen

Climate Change Mr. Speaker, while the Liberals try to govern Quebec, there is no one governing at the federal level. There is no one coming up with a real transition plan for the fisheries. There is no one tabling an overhaul of employment insurance. We found out this morning that the federal

Business of Supply Mr. Speaker, I would rather not be misquoted. What I was saying about the $239 per tonne is that that is what the Parliamentary Budget Officer is proposing. It is not the Bloc Québécois that is proposing it, it is the Parliamentary Budget Officer. What he is saying is that, wit
