Budget Implementation Act, 2021, No. 1 Mr. Speaker, I am very pleased to rise today and speak to the budget. I actually did not think I would get the opportunity to do this.

Budget Implementation Act, 2021, No. 1 Mr. Speaker, there is a phrase that I live by: Work smarter, not harder. Many of the things that we have seen from the government are the opposite of that. Money was given to dead people. If we look at the cross-section of who got the most money, it was the wealthier families tha

Budget Implementation Act, 2021, No. 1 Mr. Speaker, I absolutely think we will. I can speak to that because I lived through that. I lived through the 1990s. Like I said, my first mortgage had a 13% interest rate and I worry that my children and my future grandchildren, if I have any, will have to deal with this. They

Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act Mr. Speaker, yes, global warming is real and yes, we need to do something about it.
