Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  Mr. Speaker, I know that the Liberals are patting themselves on the back for introducing the bill.

Official Report  Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I would like to seek unanimous consent from the House to change my vote from last night on Bill C-56, Division No. 606, from nay to yea. I ran out of time and was unable to make that change then. I hope the House will allow me to change

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, the fact of the matter is that, under the Liberals, supported by the New Democrats, auto thefts and crime have skyrocketed. The New Democrats need to bear some responsibility. New Democrats have pointed to the government confidence motions on funding that we have v

Committees of the House  Madam Speaker, I just have to scratch my head and try to figure out what the Liberals are saying. They obviously do not have any business sense.

I woul

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, today's debate concerns extending the pause for assisted death for people with mental illness and disabilities as the sole underlying condition. The Liberals' original bill last year included this expansion. However, public and professional backlash toward their meas

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, it is quite unfortunate, but even under the old regime, there were many people who were not facing imminent death but still received MAID. I believe the Liberal member for Thunder Bay actually talked about some of the zealous doctors who prescribe it. I am aware that
