Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I think it is pretty clear that the words the New Democrats are putting in here are a deflection to try to continue to cover up what the government is doing here, as they have finally become aware of it. We reject the amendment.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I have read the amendment the NDP is trying to put forward to a motion to make sure we address crime in this country. It seems to be putting the onus of the crimes onto the car companies and their workers. We reject that wholeheartedly. We ask the NDP to stop hiding

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, let me ask my colleague a question on words versus actions on this.

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, it is interesting because the oil industry gets next to nothing in subsidies. There are many other Canadian industries that receive far more in subsidies. The electrical industry gets $135 billion. Who is going to pay for this? The natural resources industry is pa

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, governments, like everything, like everybody, like every household, like every entity, need to balance their budgets. When governments get out of control and spend too much and rack up too much debt, it leads to too much interest. It leads to too much being paid fo

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, I do not know what economic data he is looking at. When I look at shrinking GDP in Canada, shrinking GDP per capita, shrinking GDP across the board, real GDP, I am saying that it is the worst in the world. It is the worst among our competitor countries. We actually

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, once again, I am rising in the House not only on behalf of the residents of Calgary Centre but also on behalf of Canada's finance industry and others who are lamenting the disastrous course our country is on as we dither away our national advantages.

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, we voted 134 times last week to throw the government out through confidence measures. Canadians are responding to food inflation in two ways: buying less-nutritious food or lining up at food banks. Reliance on food banks is at record highs. Worse to come, the NDP-

Committees of the House  Mr. Speaker, I am going to ask the member the same question I asked the NDP member earlier today.

Committees of the House  Madam Speaker, I was a little aghast at some of my colleague's comments, but she must realize we are actually in the opposition here.
