Democratic Reform Mr. Speaker, the member opposite is making unfounded and, quite frankly, absurd allegations in this House. All members in this place know that it is illegal for private organizations or unions to make donations to political parties. We have very strict financing laws in Canada.

Democratic Reform Mr. Speaker, we have strict political financing rules. Individual donations are capped. The member and all members of the House know that organizations and unions are not allowed to make donations. We introduced Bill C-50, which increases transparency in political fundraising.

Democratic Institutions Mr. Speaker, Canadians know there is only one political party in this House, the Conservative Party of Canada, that does not want Canadians to vote. It also does not want Canadians to be informed about voting. Canadians trust the Chief Electoral Officer, and let us take a momen

Democratic Institutions Mr. Speaker, when one breaks the law, one has to pay the consequences, as the Conservatives have time and time again. Let us go through the facts. In 2006, we saw the in-and-out campaign finance scandal that the Conservative Party eventually pleaded guilty to. In 2008, we saw the

Democratic Institutions Mr. Speaker, as I said many times, there is only one political party in the House that does not trust our electoral system and democratic institutions.

Democratic Institutions Mr. Speaker, there is one party in this House that continues to mislead Canadians, and that is the Conservative Party of Canada.

Democratic Institutions Mr. Speaker, there is only one party in the House that tries to suppress the vote. It is the Conservative Party of Canada.

Democratic Institutions Mr. Speaker, only the Conservatives do not want Canadians to vote. When they were in government they restricted Canadians' voting rights and restricted Election Canada's mandate to talk to Canadians and encourage them to vote.

Democratic Institutions Mr. Speaker, it is just as unbecoming of politicians to troll online as it is in the House. That is a wild extrapolation on comments that were made.

Democratic Institutions Madam Speaker, the Conservatives are playing a dangerous game. They are always trying to undermine our elections and institutions. I have a challenge for the members opposite. Let us see if they can make 2019 the first time they do not break elections laws.

Democratic Institutions Madam Speaker, I would never put it past the Conservatives to let facts get in the way of their questions.

Democratic Institutions Madam Speaker, there is only one party in the House that wants to suppress Canadian voters, and that is the Conservative Party of Canada. In fact, the record shows it.
