Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, I really enjoy hearing Conservatives say, “Mr. Speaker, what Ukraine does not need”. However, what Ukrainians do not need is the member for Barrie—Innisfil telling them what they need. Ukraine does not need that. What Ukrainians need is for the member for Barrie—Inni

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, on a point of order, he is saying that I am trying to be malicious, and members are not supposed to infer that any member is not acting in an honourable way. If the member is saying that I am being malicious just because I am pointing out what he did, then he shoul

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, if we are to believe what the member just said, if we are to believe that this free trade agreement is only about the price on pollution and if we are to believe that, other than that, Conservatives completely and fully support Ukraine, can the member explain why,

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, I can confirm that I definitely shared that video. However, I did not record it. I will say this: I find it very interesting that the member wants to talk about what the Leader of the Opposition was doing at the time when the President of Ukraine was here. Do mem

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, I would say that, with the amount of time that the Conservatives have spent holding up this piece of legislation, we have had the opportunity to study it thoroughly. The member is right about one thing: It is going to provide private companies the opportunity to w

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, we voted on the amendment earlier today. The amendment the Conservatives tried to put forward was defeated, and now we are back to talking about the bill without the amendment. I am sorry if that is not what the member was referring to. However, we need to pass t

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, the member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan is getting a good laugh out of this, but it was just two days ago that Tucker Carlson was in Alberta with his premier. Where is Tucker Carlson now? Reportedly, he is in Russia about to interview Vladimir Putin. One wou

Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, 2023  Madam Speaker, I am glad that the member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan is so excited to hear my speech.

Conservative Party of Canada  Mr. Speaker, while Loblaw profits are at an all-time high so are Canadian grocery bills, and who is working to keep it that way?

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, eight out of 10 Canadians get back more than they put in. Yes, some Canadians who have very large homes and multiple vehicles probably end up spending more than they get back. In particular, individuals who are on the lower end of the economic spectrum are certainly

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, the priority is to build in Canada. I spent five minutes of my 10-minute speech talking about Umicore, a multi-billion dollar plant that is being built right outside my riding, in the Conservative member's riding of Hastings—Lennox and Addington. It will build 800,00

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I certainly agree with my colleague from the Green Party on this.

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I will be sharing my time with the member for Lac-Saint-Louis.
