Committees of the House  Madam Speaker, the member talks about the beauty of all the government programs, but it has a lot problems actually delivering on them. For example, on the incentive for new homebuyers, almost nobody has taken it up because it does not work. I think of the Canada Infrastructure B

Committees of the House  Mr. Speaker, the member finished by saying that the Liberals were doing all they could to get this under control. It seems to me that they are missing an essential element, and that is keeping the debt under control. This has led to a ballooning of the inflationary fire. The Ban

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, the Liberals pat themselves on the back for their 2023 budget, but they should not. It is a budget that, at the end of the day, will hurt Canadians, it is short-sighted, irresponsible and ultimately incompetent. Members do not have to take my word for it. The former

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, I keep hearing from those on the other side of the House that the government is investing, that they will do this and they will do that. I wonder if they recognize that there is no such thing as government money. It is the money of hard-working Canadians. It is impor

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, I have a question that perhaps the member can answer. Why do the Liberals and the NDP insist on imposing a carbon tax when it clearly is not working? Emissions continue to rise, so why are they imposing this?

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, Conservatives are quite concerned about the Liberals closing down debate. They are stymying the scrutiny of government expenditures and management, which are out of control. I will give a small example of what is happening throughout Canada, which is big in my ridin

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I can understand why the Liberals do not want to have an inquiry. For one thing, what benefits them politically is the status quo. Most of the ridings held by Chinese Canadians went Liberal in the last election, primarily because of threats and because all sorts of

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, the member mentioned putting politics aside, but he did not mention that the Liberal Party has benefited to a great extent from the Communist Chinese government's involvement in our democracy. It is a very serious situation. I hear Liberal members laughing, but this

Strengthening Environmental Protection for a Healthier Canada Act  Mr. Speaker, the member's last comment talked about the health and wellness of Canadians. I wonder if he would consider the impact of the carbon tax, which is adding thousands of dollars to Canadians' cost of living and fuel costs. It has an impact. I just want to make a quick c

Opioids  Mr. Speaker, after eight years under this Prime Minister, everything feels broken. Life is more expensive, work does not pay and housing costs have doubled. The Prime Minister devised a way to control the people. Worst of all, crime, chaos, drugs and disorder rage in our streets.

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I will say that, growing up, hunting was essential for our family. I am from a military home. My dad is Métis, and I know that the indigenous people do not just want amendments. They want the bill removed. I will quote Chief Jessica Lazare from the Mohawk Council of

Passports  Mr. Speaker, the Liberals are erasing Terry Fox's picture from Canadian passports. Terry Fox came from Coquitlam, B.C., and was Métis. After his leg was amputated for cancer, he began his cross-country Marathon of Hope to raise funds for research. Terry did not live to finish th

An Act for the Substantive Equality of Canada's Official Languages  Mr. Speaker, when my father was in the military, I lived in Chibougamau for a few years, as well as Valcartier. I went to an English school, and I appreciated the fact that I could receive my education in English. It is important, and it is an historic part of the charter, in the

An Act for the Substantive Equality of Canada's Official Languages  Mr. Speaker, perhaps the member and I will see each other at the next Festival du Bois. I have been there a number of times with students, and it is a great time. With respect to the modernization, when in government and now as the Conservative Party, the Conservatives are commi

An Act for the Substantive Equality of Canada's Official Languages  Mr. Speaker, I thank the member who has the same first name as me. He stole it, I think. I am not certain. It is spelled with a “c”, is it not? In British Columbia, during the pandemic, the federal government was nowhere to be found. Francophone immigrants coming from all over h
