Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, the member is absolutely right. Mental health is a very serious issue in our society. Rather than talking about medical assistance in dying for people with mental health disorders, the government should make funding available, and quickly, so that everyone in this

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I think Canadians are on the same page as Quebeckers. I think it would be in our best interest to take all the time we need to really think through this very sensitive and delicate issue, which involves very personal and deeply held values, so that we can properly

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I rise today to speak to Bill C-39, an act to amend an act to amend the Criminal Code (medical assistance in dying), introduced by the Liberal Minister of Justice. This is obviously a particularly delicate subject. The bill corrects a mistake made by the Liberal g

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, when people think of Canada, they think of a prosperous, peaceful and safe country. Unfortunately, the situation has been deteriorating for the past eight years. The Prime Minister has been in power for eight years and violent crimes have increased by 32%. In major c

The Economy  Mr. Speaker, after eight years under this Prime Minister, inflation is out of control. Simply put, everything costs a lot more: groceries, heating, and housing. The Prime Minister would like us to believe that he has nothing to do with it, but it is precisely his reckless spendi

The Economy  Mr. Speaker, who is killing the Canadian economy? It is the Liberals. According to a recent Léger poll, Quebeckers are feeling extremely stressed about what this year will bring. The number one concern is the impact of rising consumer prices. What will it take for the Prime Min

Tragedy at Laval Day Care  Mr. Speaker, this morning in Laval, an incomprehensible and shocking event happened. A bus crashed into a day care. Over the past few hours we unfortunately received the worst news we could get. Two children are dead and several are seriously injured. As a mother, I can well im

Public Services and Procurement  Mr. Speaker, inflation is through the roof. Housing costs have doubled; families will pay $1,065 more for food this year, and 1.5 million Canadians are visiting food banks. That is where eight years of the Prime Minister's government has gotten us. What is his government doing?

Quebec Winter Carnival  Mr. Speaker, until February 12, all Canadians can shake their pompom at the 69th Quebec Winter Carnival. Carnival-goers are invited to experience a range of new unconventional activities, including an urban slide from the top of the ramparts, a silent disco, and electro, francoph

The Economy  Mr. Speaker, after eight years of this government, Canadians are struggling. Every month, inflation takes more and more of their paycheque, and 1.5 million people used food banks in one month. Students are living in shelters. Mothers have to choose between feeding the child they

The Economy  Mr. Speaker, we do not need to spend more, we need to spend better. According to the Food Price Report, an average family of four will have to pay $1,065 more for groceries in 2023. Canadian families are already struggling to get by. In 2023, more and more families simply will n

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, we all know Canadian families are feeling the financial pinch. Liberal inflation is hitting them right in the pocketbook. The Liberal government needs to give them a break. The easy way to do that is to agree to our one key demand: do like other G7 countries and can

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the plan she is referring to is a tax plan. At the same time that the Liberal government is insisting on increasing the carbon tax, it is announcing new spending to please the NDP, which, members will recall, is keeping the Liberals in power. People living in rural

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, he is talking about going to the dentist. I am talking about buying groceries. People are telling us they are struggling, but the Liberals ignore them and keep going. They want to raise taxes. Each of my colleagues here today has long been sharing in the House some

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, this Liberal government is really out of touch with what is happening in Canada. Inflation is hurting Canadians, who can no longer make ends meet. I often talk about workers who have to use food banks, namely, 1.5 million in just one month; young people who are livi
