Climate Change Mr. Speaker, we take no lessons from the Conservatives. Last week, they voted against the aerospace industry. They voted against tourism businesses. They voted against the Plains of Abraham. Imagine that, the Plains of Abraham. The member for Louis-Saint-Laurent should be ashame

Automotive Industry Madam Speaker, it is always so outrageous for Canadians to hear the Conservatives make such crazy allegations. Not only have they been against the Stellantis deal, but they have also been against the Volkswagen deal. They are against the Northvolt deal. They are against the Ford

Automotive Industry Madam Speaker, it is so outrageous to hear the Conservatives. Not only did I read the contract, but I also negotiated the contract. These guys have never seen it, and they make all these claims. They have all these numbers. They do not know what they are talking about. It is not

Public Services and Procurement Madam Speaker, Canadians are tired of the Conservatives spreading misinformation across the nation. They are getting influenced, I do not know by whom, but it is very concerning. The agency the member is talking about has been helping hundreds, if not thousands, of companies in

Public Services and Procurement Madam Speaker, the extent the Conservatives go to talk down our economy and small and medium-sized businesses is amazing. I would tell the member on the other side to be prudent because that particular organization has helped companies across the nation with clean technology. O

Public Service and Procurement Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. I would caution him to be careful because the decision that we announced yesterday was based on national security.

Grocery Industry Madam Speaker, I will not take the “little” meeting personally. I am sure he was not referring to me when he said that. In fact, it was a big meeting. It was the first time in Canada's history that we had the five largest grocers in Canada. What I did was express the frustration

Finance Madam Speaker, talking about Christmas presents, I have an idea for the Conservative Party of Canada: It could give Canadians a Christmas gift for once. Third reading of the affordability bill is just around the corner. If the Conservatives mean what they say, why not prove it t

Automotive Industry Mr. Speaker, I am afraid I will have to say that we will take no lessons from a party with a leader who, when he was employment minister, oversaw the loss of not 3,000 manufacturing jobs, not the loss of 30,000 of them, but the loss of 300,000 manufacturing jobs in this country.
