The Budget  Mr. Speaker, it is interesting to see that the Conservative leader asks questions about the budget only in French. I am sure there is something to that, but let us move on to something else. Then he just keeps talking nonsense. We have transferred billions of dollars to help the

COVID-19 Response  Mr. Speaker, throughout this pandemic we have continually been there to support provinces and territories and to support Canadians right across the country. We made a straightforward promise that we would have people's backs, and that is exactly what we have done and what we will

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, the Conservative Party leader mentioned “little programs” that will help lots of people, and he said that was shameful. For the past year, we have been listening to Canadians, working with Canadians and addressing the needs of organizations, small businesses, worker

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, during the 2019 election, we recognized and understood that seniors needed help, that seniors aged 75 and older have more costs and that expenses were going up while Canadians were living longer. They are concerned about their old age pension, their retirement saving

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, as a government, we have always been there for seniors. One of the first things we did following the 2015 election was to increase the guaranteed income supplement by 10%. We have continued to be there for seniors, whether it was by investing in the new horizons for

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, that is simply not true. One of the first things our government did in 2015 was raise taxes on the rich and lower taxes on the middle class. Unfortunately, the NDP voted against that. We will always keep trying to help those in need. In this budget, we are ensurin

Health  Mr. Speaker, it is important in this House that we be grounded in facts. Our plan is working, and we are getting more vaccines than anticipated. We have now delivered over 13.3 million doses to provinces and territories, with more than 10 million doses of vaccine already administ

Health  Mr. Speaker, again, the Conservatives attempt to play politics with this, but the fact is that we actually passed our target of six million doses by the end of March by over 50%. We are now receiving over a million doses every single week, and we will continue to. We will receive

Health  Mr. Speaker, we will be receiving more than a million vaccines every single week for the foreseeable future, with two million in the month of May, with tens of millions in the month of June. We will continue to deliver vaccines, but we know that as we continue to work, we need to

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, that is absolutely false. I noticed that, in English, the opposition leader is saying that we are spending too much for Canadians, but in French, he is saying we need to spend more. The fact is, we have transferred billions of dollars to the provinces and territorie

Fisheries and Oceans  Mr. Speaker, every step of the way we have worked to respect people's rights, to respect people's livelihoods and to move forward in a way that ensures a strong and growing economy with opportunities for everyone, in the spirit of reconciliation.

Fisheries and Oceans  Mr. Speaker, we have been clear every step of the way, both about ongoing negotiations and also about our values and our understanding of how important it is to move forward in true reconciliation and partnership with indigenous peoples, in ways that support families that have be

Justice  Mr. Speaker, I thank the hon. member for Markham—Stouffville for her strong leadership. Women and women alone have the right to make decisions about their own bodies. While the leader of the opposition is allowing an anti-abortion bill to be introduced, our government has defend

Air Transportation  Mr. Speaker, as Canadians have seen through this pandemic, our priority remains the safety and security of Canadians at all times.

Health  Mr. Speaker, as a government, we have always been consistent in supporting Taiwan's meaningful participation in international forums. Taiwan's role as an observer in the World Health Assembly's meetings is in the interest of global health. We welcome the participation from the
