Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Madam Speaker, through you to the member, we are not saying that we have an issue with the climate crisis; we are saying we have an issue with the Liberals' tax plan, which has nothing to do with protecting the environment. They are collecting more money, which is leaving Canadia

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Madam Speaker, I have to admit that it is not necessarily just a federal issue. When we talk about gatekeepers, it does not matter which level of government it is. For the most part, when it comes to zoning and restructuring building plans, it usually falls under municipal gover

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Madam Speaker, there is absolutely no reason for the government to buy a pipeline. The only reason it did so was because of its own policies, which created the issue. If this pipeline had been built by the contractor and the company, we would not have seen a $30-billion increase

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Madam Speaker, I am pleased to rise in the House today to speak to yet another inflationary, irresponsible Liberal budget that claims to rein in inflation, yet actually does the complete opposite. The Liberals even claim that it is a made-in-Canada plan, while they continue thei

Strengthening Reporting Obligations for Sex Offenders Act (Noah's Law)  moved for leave to introduce Bill C-336, An Act to amend the Criminal Code and the Sex Offender Information Registration Act (Noah's Law). Mr. Speaker, I would like to present my first private member's bill, the strengthening reporting obligations for sex offenders act, Noah's l

Wildfires  Mr. Speaker, for the last while, communities in Brazeau, Clearwater, Lac Ste. Anne, Parkland and Yellowhead counties have experienced severe wildfires. I have answered emails and phone calls from people who fear what they will see when they return home. The emotional toll this is

Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada  Madam Speaker, the first vacation the Prime Minister went on was to a billionaire's private island. He claimed he was a close personal friend. Was this not also his first ethics violation? In 2021, on the first-ever National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, he and his family je

Questions Passed as Orders for Returns  With regard to expenditures related to conferences, since 2016, broken down by year and by department, agency, or other government entity: (a) what was the total amount spent on conference fees (object code 0823 or similar); and (b) what was the total amount spent on travel expen

Questions Passed as Orders for Returns  With regard to government measures to mark the one-year anniversary of the Russian Federation's invasion of Ukraine: (a) has the Privy Council Office (PCO) provided any guidance or direction with respect to displaying Ukrainian flags on Government of Canada buildings and properti

Online Streaming Act  Madam Speaker, the Liberals talk about how the NDP, the Bloc and the Liberals are all in coalition together and about how it is a great bill, so people do not have anything to worry about, yet the Senate also said that this is censorship. Why did the government not accept the Sen

Telecommunications Act  Mr. Speaker, my biggest concern with the legislation, as the member brought up, is about the overreaching powers the government is giving itself. We do not know much about what it will be doing with that power or how it can implement that. Can the member give his opinion on how

Taxation  Mr. Speaker, repeatedly the Liberal government proves that it does not care about Canadians. If it did, then inflation would not be at a record-breaking 40-year high. The Liberals' solution: an automatic escalator on the alcohol excise tax, increasing taxes on beer, wine and spir

Telecommunications Act  Madam Speaker, yes, I think we will be voting in favour of the bill. The problem is that although the bill would address the fact of cybersecurity as a very important thing we need to deal with, it seems like every type of legislation the Liberal government puts forward would als

Telecommunications Act  Madam Speaker, I think there is some confusion as to what we do and do not stand for. I believe there are a lot of opportunities in Canada when it comes to online streaming and how we can get our products out to market. However, when we start talking about Bill C-11, we start tal

Telecommunications Act  Madam Speaker, that was probably the briefest time I have ever heard the member speak in the House; it is shocking. I will do my best as well. When we start talking about information sharing, all these companies have to provide information as to what they are doing to make cybe
