Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, media reports from yesterday say that the Prime Minister will not be raising any specific energy projects when he meets with the President today. No, this is not a Seinfeld episode. We do not need a meeting about nothing when our public health and economic security a

Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, if ministers were awarded for words, this minister would be an outperformer. However, the government's results on energy are dismal. On Trans Mountain, its proponents left Canada, and it is now years behind schedule. Northern gateway was cancelled. Energy east was ca

Points of Order  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I will appeal this as well, on behalf of the member who wanted to be seen. You do not recognize members, Mr. Speaker, whom you cannot see when they are voting, so this does seem to be a bit of a disconnect. You also rule when our microph

Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, can the Prime Minister tell Canadians what he means when his government says that Line 5 is different from Keystone XL? Is it different because the Minister of Natural Resources is paying more attention this time? Is it different because he might actually engage the

Opposition Motion—Plan for Reopening the Economy  Mr. Speaker, I have a couple questions in hearing her speech. I really want to ask her about travel. Travel is one of those things that Canadians have said that we need to lockdown on, but at the same time, we also have to continue to think about what travel means in our society.

Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, last week, Chevron Canada announced that it was exiting the Kitimat LNG after seven years and $3 billion. Why is investment fleeing this world-leading project?

Gender-Based Violence  Madam Chair, I really want to ask the hon. member more about the experiences that she spoke about in describing these incidents that have happened, and the results of these being somewhat related to COVID and what has happened in the last year here in Canada, and how much we can

Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2020  Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the passion with which my colleague on the Liberal side of the House has addressed this issue and I see he did it without noticing he was going on about what was going wrong with this side of the House on that matter.

Income Tax Act  moved that Bill C-262, an act to amend the Income Tax Act (capture and utilization or storage of greenhouse gases), be read the second time and referred to a committee. Madam Speaker, it is my honour to rise in the House today to present this private member's bill at second rea

Income Tax Act  Madam Speaker, yes, the United States has a difference in the way its application works toward the 45Q tax credit when it is utilized in actual enhanced oil recovery. The data actually shows that the reduction from wells to wheels, as we call it, or the full life cycle of oil and
