Online News Act Madam Speaker, when a piece of legislation would support certain media giants that are affiliated with and support the narrative the Liberal government is putting forward, and would throw other smaller media to the curb, that would be a form of censorship. That is with respect to

Online News Act Madam Speaker, I do not know how to respond to my hon. colleague's making comments about my hair. Maybe I should have it dyed blond; I do not know. In terms of respect and heading to the Senate, my hon. colleague talked about maturity. I think she might be approaching that stage

Online News Act Madam Speaker, I appreciate my fellow fishery committee member's question. She talked about CBC and its independence, or whatever. Her taste in food is much better than her taste in media, because she just told me about how much she liked fried bologna and beans. Her taste in foo

Online News Act Madam Speaker, I will be splitting my time with the member for Carlton Trail—Eagle Creek. The NDP-Liberal coalition has been as sly as a fox and as slippery as an eel with this piece of legislation known as Bill C-18, the online news act. This is yet another Liberal attempt to

Fisheries and Oceans Mr. Speaker, these Liberals have had eight years of blaming everyone and everything for their failures, and they have failed yet again.

Carbon Pricing Mr. Speaker, what a pile of baloney. Canadians know that all they have done is destroy jobs in Canada. The Prime Minister's childhood friend, who believes the same thing, Premier Furey said that when he asked the federal minister what impact the carbon tax 2 would have. He admitt

Carbon Tax Mr. Speaker, “insulting” is how the Liberal premier of Newfoundland and Labrador describes Ottawa's approach to carbon tax. Atlantic premiers have long called for Ottawa to re-examine the policies of the Liberal government that will result in a heavier cost for the people of Atla

Government Business No. 26—Amendments to the Standing Orders Madam Speaker, when I was outside earlier I was talking to him as I was coming in and Kevin said to me, “We've got to show up, we've got to go to work and we've got to come here.” They do not want to come here to protect an empty building, so folks like them have to come to work.
