After eight years of this P

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2023  Mr. Speaker, I am glad the member brought up the idea of a hidden agenda. Just this week we saw a story in the news that the Liberals and the NDP were plotting behind the scenes and in secret about amendments to the Elections Act, without bringing in two of the major parties in t

National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act  Madam Speaker, I always find it interesting that the NDP is stuck in the past.
