Telecommunications Act Madam Speaker, six years ago Statistics Canada found that more than one-fifth of all Canadian businesses were impacted by cybersecurity incidents, a sobering statistic in its own right. That was six years ago. What we need to understand is that cyber-technology moves at a mile a

The Economy Mr. Speaker, after eight years of the Liberal Prime Minister, everything feels broken. Just yesterday, the Governor of the Bank of Canada confirmed that the carbon tax is adding a full half percentage point to inflation. While Canadians are struggling just to feed themselves, the

The Economy Mr. Speaker, the carbon tax is all pain and no gain. The Liberals have never met a single target that they set for themselves. It is a tax plan, not an environmental plan. After eight years of the Liberal Prime Minister, everything feels broken. Yesterday, at committee, the bank

National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act Mr. Speaker, I would be remiss if I did not say what the elephant in the room was this morning.

National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act Mr. Speaker, I enjoy working with my colleague on the finance committee. He always has excellent questions and makes excellent points, and this is in fact one of them.

National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act Mr. Speaker, I was hoping that the member had listened to my speech before she asked her question. If she reviews the Hansard, she will see that is, in fact, exactly what I said. I don't think the $454 million threshold solves the problem anymore. It should be zero.

Carbon Pricing Madam Speaker, after eight years of the Liberal Prime Minister, he leaves a sad legacy. It is not his fault that Canadians cannot afford to eat, heat or house themselves, he says, but now he is making it even worse. He is going to triple the carbon tax. Conservatives will turn al

Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter Mr. Speaker, I am rising today to celebrate the great work of the Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter.

National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act Madam Speaker, I noted that during his speech, the member talked about the security of our economy. Right now, under the legislation, foreign investment review is triggered only when the assets of a Canadian corporation are at least $454 million. I wonder if the member would ag
