Canada Business Corporations Act  All those opposed will please say nay.

Canada Business Corporations Act  In my opinion the nays have it. And five or more members having risen: Pursuant to order made on Tuesday, May 30, 2017, the division stands deferred until Wednesday, June 21, 2017, at the expiry of the time provided for oral questions.

Amendments to Standing Orders  Mr. Speaker, that is an easy one. If the opposition came to the table as honest brokers and came to the government to discuss this, which is what we were looking for, we would have had a much more productive discussion and it would have resulted in a motion. If they did not agree

Amendments to Standing Orders  Mr. Speaker, they were in our platform and we committed to do them. I would like to discuss the other items, and we did in fact propose a discussion. The motion was to create a discussion. I was there for it. I co-wrote the motion with the member for Coast of Bays—Central—Notre

Amendments to Standing Orders  Mr. Speaker, as I said, we hoped to have a discussion to build on the ideas, to perhaps invite witnesses to discuss how it was done in other countries, and to see what other people did. What ended up coming out of this was a few things committed to in the platform, rather than t

Amendments to Standing Orders  Mr. Speaker, I do not know what pals he is talking about. Bill C-44 was introduced as part of the budget. We made it very clear in the budget that we were going to create the infrastructure bank. Our plans to do that were clear. The infrastructure bank is a way of investing and

Amendments to Standing Orders  Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the member for Scarborough—Agincourt for sharing his time with me. It is emblematic of the duties we have been sharing over the past year as I have been working with him to back him up in his deputy House leadership duties. While my dream of fixing t

Changes to the Standing Orders  Mr. Speaker, the member for Victoria and the opposition House leader have talked a great deal about the need for consensus to change the Standing Orders. However, only six days ago, the NDP opposition day motion sought to change the Standing Orders on a majority vote. In the las

Changes to the Standing Orders  Mr. Speaker, the minister and I both served as staff in previous parliaments and I think we have all been around to see some of the very interesting things that have happened here over the years. When I read this motion, I see a whole lot of things that would have helped us when

Transportation Modernization Act  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I am wondering if you might find the consent of the House to see the clock at 1:30.

Transportation Modernization Act  Mr. Speaker, I am proud of the bill, for a couple of reasons. As a licensed pilot and a long time trainspotter, it has all my interests in one place. The railways in this country were built around the concept of building local monopolies. They are spaced out by certain distances

Holidays Act  Madam Speaker, I would seek the consent of the House to see the clock as 6:30 p.m.

Main Estimates, 2017-18  Mr. Speaker, the only thing rich about the record of the Conservatives is their description of it. In over a century, the Conservatives have never managed to take us from a deficit to a surplus. I am getting tired of hearing that lecture. Virtually all the debt we have in the c

Main Estimates, 2017-18  Madam Speaker, I enjoy talking about the Senate, because I think the Senate has an incredible value in our country, especially in its current form, where members are there as members who provide sober second thought. Sobriety does not refer to alcohol. The sober caucus, on that b

Indian Act  Mr. Speaker, I would seek the consent of the House to see the clock at midnight.
