Climate Change  Mr. Speaker, the minister is clearly misleading Canadians. The Liberals do not have an environment plan. What they have is a political agenda. The Prime Minister has two carbon taxes that are punishing Canadian families, which we now know do not reduce emissions. However, when

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, what is the Prime Minister's Christmas gift to 97% of Canadians? Merry Christmas. They are going to have a carbon tax on home heating this winter. The Prime Minister literally gave Canadians a lump of coal by voting against the common-sense Conservative motion to ta

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister joined the separatists to divide Canadians. Those Canadians will have to pay a carbon tax on their home heating over the winter, and 3% of Canadians will get a pause on the pain. It is clear that for the Liberals and the Bloc, their Christmas gift

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, on Monday, we will be voting on a common-sense Conservative motion to axe the carbon tax on home heating for every single Canadian. It is snowing in southern Alberta; it is cold. It should not be a luxury to heat our homes, yet when the Prime Minister quadruples his

Health of Animals Act  Mr. Speaker, I doubt any of us can intimidate our fathers into do anything they do not want to do. I am still thankful that the father voice still kind of works a little. The member is exactly right. We heard those stories from farmers, which were heartbreaking. In my speech, I

Health of Animals Act  Mr. Speaker, I certainly have a lot of respect for the hon. member. I enjoyed our time on the agriculture committee together. He is exactly right. This would put the agriculture industry in line with most other industries in Canada. People cannot simply walk onto a dangerous aut

Health of Animals Act  Mr. Speaker, certainly it is a frustrating argument that this is an ag-gag law. The wording of the amendment would protect whistle-blowers or anyone who is there lawfully and with supervision, so to say this is an ag-gag law is completely wrong. Let us back up a little on what t

Health of Animals Act  Mr. Speaker, I do have a lot of respect for my colleague, whom I work with quite closely on the agriculture committee, and we will have to agree to disagree on the implications and the wording of the bill. I would argue that why we wanted to maintain that language is that we had

Health of Animals Act  moved that the bill be read the third time and passed. Mr. Speaker, it is an honour and a privilege to rise in the House today and speak again to my private member's bill, Bill C-275, an act to amend the Health of Animals Act. I would like to thank all the members of the agricul

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the carbon tax works only if it is politically expedient. The Prime Minister's carbon tax exemption does not help 97% of Canadians who are already struggling to put food on the table and heat their homes. Now we have a Liberal minister from Newfoundland and Labrado

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, an election must be in the air because the Prime Minister has announced his re-election campaign: Vote Liberal, and in three years they are going to quadruple the carbon tax on home heating, gas and groceries. After eight years, the Prime Minister is in a panic mode

October 30th, 2023House debate

John BarlowConservative

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the Liberals do not care about food costs or affordability. Canadians are struggling to put food on the table after eight years of the Liberal-NDP government. Almost two million Canadians accessed a food bank in March. That is up 79% from March 2019. A third of thos

John BarlowConservative

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, with plummeting polls in Atlantic Canada, the Prime Minister is panicked, desperate and making it up as he goes along. Only a year ago, Liberal MPs voted against a Conservative motion to axe the carbon tax from home heating. What a difference a year makes. I know my
