Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act  Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure to speak to Bill C-12. We have had quite a lively debate today. If we talk about this net zero by 2050 target and we look at the bill to see what it would actually do, we see it is a typical smoke-and-mirrors Liberal bill that does not have any subs

Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act  Mr. Speaker, I do not see anything in Bill C-12 that is concrete action to advance us toward the targets. I know the Liberals are not on track to meet even the 2030 targets. Could the member tell me what in the bill is evidence of a plan that would actually meet net zero by 2050?

Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act  Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for her speech. Bill C-12 would do nothing more than create a committee and make recommendations to the government for coming up with a plan. In other words, the Liberals currently do not have a plan. What does the member think about that?

Bill C-10  Mr. Speaker, like all of the Liberals' policies, Bill C-10 is a poorly thought-out piece of legislation that will have a tidal wave of consequences for everyday Canadians, first and foremost curtailing their freedom of speech online. This is unacceptable. The Liberals have remo

National Framework for Diabetes Act  Madam Speaker, it is a pleasure to rise and speak to Bill C-237, the national framework for diabetes act. I would like to thank the member for Brampton South for bringing it forward and for all her advocacy. From the time we were both elected in 2015, I have participated alongsi

National Framework for Diabetes Act  Madam Speaker, I would like to thank the member for Brampton South for all of her advocacy on diabetes all these years and for a great speech today. Beyond the national framework that is definitely needed, there are other things the government could do. The member mentioned a 36

Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, the deadline for amicus briefs in support for Line 5 is May 11, which is less than two weeks away. A unanimous report from the Canada-U.S. parliamentary committee as well as the natural resources minister has indicated that they will send a brief to support the 25,00

National Day of Mourning  Mr. Speaker, today is the National Day of Mourning for all those who have died or suffered illness or injury in the workplace. In a year when so many have been deeply affected by workplace tragedy because of the pandemic, commemorating this day is more important than ever. From

Governor General's Act  Madam Speaker, I am pleased to rise to speak to Bill C-271, which seeks to amend the Governor General's Act. The Bloc Québécois member wants the Governor General to be paid an annual salary of $1 and not be entitled to a pension. I cannot support that. The more important questi

Governor General's Act  Madam Speaker, it comes as no surprise that the Bloc Québécois wants to destroy our Canadian democratic system. I understand that the Bloc does not like Julie Payette, but does the member not think that an excellent candidate, like the Right Honourable David Johnston, who worked

Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act  Madam Speaker, I would like to thank the member for her speech. I had planned on introducing a similar bill, so I will be supporting this one. However, I do have an idea for an amendment. I think it is good to have a priority to make sure that people get their pensions before c

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I do not understand why my colleague believes the bill would do anything. We know that 95% of gun crime in Canada is with illegal guns. The Liberals voted against a private member's bill from the member for Markham—Unionville that would have eliminated illegal guns

The Budget  Madam Speaker, I would like to thank the member opposite for highlighting what she liked in the budget. There are a lot of seniors in my riding, and with two increases to the carbon tax during the pandemic and the rising costs of everything, I am wondering this. Why did the gove

Public Services and Procurement  Mr. Speaker, the Liberal vaccine rollout has been floundering for months. We keep paying the price for vaccine delivery delays. In my riding of Sarnia—Lambton, we have had to cancel vaccine clinics repeatedly. Case numbers and ICU hospitalizations are out of control. Do the Lib

Climate Change  Mr. Speaker, last week our leader announced a plan to tackle climate change. I was pleased to see many of the ideas I have been advocating for present in the plan, things like working with major industrial emitters to implement technology to actually reduce emissions, reducing em
