Budget Implementation Act, 2016, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for his speech. I was especially interested in two things he touched on: the situation of Canadian students and that of seniors. I want to ask the member a question about that. Increasing the guaranteed income supplement for our s

Canada Post  Mr. Speaker, what people want is their mail delivered to their home. That is it. The Liberals promised to restore home mail delivery, not to put everything on the table. We are talking about a basic public service. Moreover, it is profitable and does not cost a cent in taxes.

Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie  Mr. Speaker, I am blown away every day by the innovation and resourcefulness of the people of Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie. The people who live on the laneway between Bordeaux and Chabot, near Bellechasse, have undertaken a project unlike any other. They are heating and cooling thei

Public Service Labour Relations Act  Mr. Speaker, I am rising to respond to my Conservative colleague's comments. As part of the union accreditation process, secret ballot voting is always a tactic used by employers or management to lower the success rate of the unionization process. Signing a membership card respe

Budget Implementation Act, 2016, No. 1.  No, not so-called, a real socialist.

Budget Implementation Act, 2016, No. 1.  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. We have not had an opportunity to debate for a long time. I pinch myself a little when I hear a Conservative say he is concerned about social justice and the disadvantaged in our society after his government gave billions of dol

Budget Implementation Act, 2016, No. 1.  Mr. Speaker, I listened with interest to the speech by my hon. colleague from Beauce, although I was not particularly surprised at it. We are still in the imaginary world of libertarian phantasmagoria. I would remind my colleague that while private enterprise has a role to pla

Quebec  Mr. Speaker, this is what happens when we need the Liberals from Quebec: “Hello. You have reached the Liberal Party. All our members are currently hiding. Please stay on the line. Your call is important to us.” Can someone tell me what good the 40 Liberal members from Quebec are

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for her very touching and personal speech and the concrete examples she shared. My question has to do with the specific case of people who have degenerative diseases. The special joint committee recommended that these individuals be ab

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, today's debate is critical. It is extremely important. It affects everyone, and it gives rise to both hopes and fears in our communities. The NDP thinks that we need to listen to the experts, and it also wants the government's bill to measure up to the Supreme Cou

Air Canada Public Participation Act  Madam Speaker, what the Liberals are imposing on us and on 2,600 families is outrageous. I am proud of my colleagues, proud that we are here fighting this bill. When the Conservatives got a majority in 2011, the first thing they did was crush the postal workers' union. Now we ha

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. The Conservatives certainly have no shortage of moxie, or at least they have a sense of humour. They are casting stones at the new Liberal government, when there were all kinds of scandals in recent years. There was Dean Del Mast

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Drummond for his excellent and relevant comments. I am also sad that scandals keep popping up one after the other. We have gone from Tory scandals to Liberal ones. I also want to congratulate my colleague for his work on the official lang

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for the question. We share the same concerns about having topical, constructive debates to help us move forward to resolve certain problems. We can and must improve many things together. I am talking about things that affect our constituents,

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I want to thank my colleague from Richmond—Arthabaska very much for his question and his desire to look to the future and make things better. Indeed, the conflict of interest code for MPs and ministers could be strengthened. The commissioner should also have power
