Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, the hon. member reminded me of something important. When I went to the industrial heartland, I met with an organization that I think many hon. members would know. It is called Women Building Futures. It is encouraging women, especially in Alberta, to enter the labo

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, we are here this evening because of the filibuster that was in place by the opposition for about 10 meetings. We are moving toward a net-zero economy. That is several decades away, over three by my math. At the same time, we know that energy production, renewable

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, I just want to say to the learned member from the Coquitlam area and the Port Moody area that we have an expression in the language that my parents spoke when they came here. In Italian, we say un grande abbraccio, which means “a big hug”. I see many members on the

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, I was absent for a few minutes. I understand I may have missed a few words or so, but I would like to get to the heart of the matter on Bill C-50—

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, I would ask colleagues to always remember that the wonderful residents of every single one of our ridings sent us here to do the good work they want us to do, and also to be as respectful as we can and as passionate as we are as members of Parliament. That is our f

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, I would say to the hon. member who is chatting at me from the other side that the Canada child benefit, two middle-income tax cuts, the Canada workers benefit, the dental benefit, raising the—

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, as I said, the Conservatives on the opposite side filibustered all 10 meetings we have had on Bill C-50. Constituents back home know this. Residents know this. Canadians know this. They send us here. We are paid by the taxpayers, and all the opposite side has done

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  Madam Speaker, I have been listening to the hon. member for 20 minutes, and in questions and answers. I have the honour of sitting on the natural resources committee. It was filibustered by the Conservative members on that committee for the last 10 meetings. We have had no witnes

Auto Industry  Mr. Speaker, confident countries invest in their workers. Confident countries invest in their future. We are confident in Canada. We are not only investing in Canadians, but we also continue to attract transformational investments. These include more than $40 billion in less than

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I think I need to review the tape on that question. Our government will always work in the best interest of Canadians and for the residents who sent us here. It is a privilege and an honour to be in the House. With reference to the legislation on replacement worker

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, as someone who believes in free trade and trade agreements, on principle, I think we need to support trade agreements. It may be CETA, CUSMA, CPTPP, the Canada-Korea Free Trade Agreement, which was negotiated by the other side, if I remember correctly, or the Canada-

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I have the utmost respect for this member of Parliament. I know he is proud of his heritage. I know he supports Ukraine in its fight against Putin with every inch and every ounce of his body. I will say that. I will take the high road. I will leave it at that. What

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I just want to thank all my colleagues in the House for their points of order. Obviously, we are here to learn from each other, make legislation better, make sure we represent our constituents and make this country not only the best place to live today but the best p

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, the fact of the matter is that, unlike the Conservative Party of Canada, whose senators still caucus with that party, there are no senators who caucus with the duly elected members of Parliament who represent Liberal ridings—

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, whether it is a point of order or a point of debate, I think that is something that is always good to clarify. With regard to the senators that have been appointed, there is a process that all senators have to do. Here in Ontario, there are members appointed by the
