Privilege  Madam Speaker, as we are dealing with China in general, I wonder what the member's thoughts are with regard to the overall policy. I remember this first being raised when I got here with China Minmetals. The government of the day, under Paul Martin, was selling our shares of Pe

Privilege  Madam Speaker, I am glad the convoy issue was raised because Americans came to my riding to be part of the illegal blockade along Huron Church Road at the Ambassador Bridge. There is certainly a record of those individuals. I am wondering whether the hon. member thinks those pe

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I thank the opposition for raising the motion today. I hope the member actually apologizes. I saw him become unhinged in this chamber before and call the Speaker a damn disgrace. He actually apologized to me in the past—

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, I would never speak on behalf of the member from Churchill. That is never going to happen. I do want to say that I appreciate the question.
