Finance  Mr. Speaker, the Business Council of Canada is warning the Liberal-NDP government that it can no longer run large, permanent deficits without fear. After eight long years, the Prime Minister has added more debt than every government between 1867 and 2015 combined, creating 40-yea

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, this gives me the opportunity to actually let my hon. colleague know what our plan is. First of all, we are seeing today that productivity is as bad as it was back in the Great Depression. We would make sure to bring up productivity, including by getting more of ou

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, if we look at the home province the member is from, we have a clear example of how bad of an impact Liberal-NDP policies are having on this country. Not only did they fuel the opioid deaths in the opioid crisis of our country, but there are also clear examples, in

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, while the member was asking his question, I was looking for the Liberals' plan to balance the budget or how many times they have done so. I obviously could not find anything, and I will remind the member that it was the Prime Minister who thought budgets would bala

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, my colleague says, “Don't hold your breath”, and I will not. Let us put this back into the context of why we brought forward this motion in the first place. It is because of a looming crisis that could take place in this country if the Liberal-NDP government does

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I want to start by congratulating my good friend, the passionate member for King—Vaughan for her incredible speech. She is a great advocate for her community, Canadians are going through housing hell right now. Nine out of 10 young people say they have lost the d

Finance  Mr. Speaker, after eight years of failed Liberal-NDP policies, the finance minister experiences inflation much differently than everyday Canadians. Her enormous inflationary deficits led to 40-year highs in inflation that caused the Bank of Canada interest rates to go up, more t

Finance  Mr. Speaker, the finance minister is known for speeding up, just for the wrong reasons. By adding more debt than every government before them combined, she put the pedal to the metal on her deficits and revved up inflation. Unlike on an Alberta highway, the consequence of her sp

Housing  Mr. Speaker, Canadians should not have believed the finance minister when she said to borrow as much as one wants and that interest rates will be low for a very long time. She turned around and threw hundreds of billions of dollars of fuel onto the inflationary fire, giving Cana

Housing  Mr. Speaker, the rating she brags about came at the high cost of one in five Canadians skipping meals and seven million Canadians visiting a food bank in a single month. She is completely out of touch, but she is in line with her incompetent government's legacy. The finance minis

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I have great respect for my hon. colleague, and I think we do some great work on the finance committee. I will say that included in this motion is the fact that it is too bad that the Bloc teamed up with the costly Liberal-NDP coalition and was okay with slamming

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I would like to remind my colleague that it was just a few months ago that the great people of Alberta re-elected once again a strong majority Conservative government provincially, rejecting the out-of-control, out-of-touch, ideological, left NDP. I will also remi

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, the member is completely out of touch. He is out of touch with the farmers whom his government continues to attack with this carbon tax, which has actually driven up the cost of everything. When farmers are driving tractors on their farms, they are hit with the car

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, before I start, I would like to inform you that I am splitting my time with my very eloquent and passionate advocate and colleague from Mégantic—L'Érable. It was all a scam. The carbon tax was sold when a bumper sticker should have been slapped on that said, “Not

Housing  Mr. Speaker, anyone who took out a five-year, $500,000 variable rate mortgage in 2021 is now paying up to $24,000 more in interest a year. This is around the time the finance minister was telling everyone to borrow as much as they wanted because interest rates would be low for a
