Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I am certainly not here to get down that rabbit hole on David Johnston, but I will make one thing clear: I do not recall anybody asking for a special rapporteur. The hon. member suggests that it is our decision, but they have a decision they can make. They can call

Grocery Industry  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister's non-answer is just more proof that the government is working for big grocers and not Canadian families. If it were not for the New Democrats, the government would never hold grocery CEOs accountable. These are the grocers who fixed the price of

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022  Madam Speaker, the hon. member spoke at length about administrative tribunals being a way in which people can access justice as it relates to their appeals processes and so on, but yet, this is in direct contradiction to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner, who is clearly oppo

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022  Madam Speaker, while I have a growing appreciation for the Bloc's propensity to be here as representatives of the Quebec legislator, I am not here in that capacity. Any legislation we put forward does have international ramifications that must be met in terms of the internationa

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022  Madam Speaker, it is clear that Moore's law has extrapolated over the inaction of the Liberal government for the last eight years. We absolutely should have moved on this. However, we need to do it right. It is important that we do not put a piecemeal effort forward to try to kee

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022  Madam Speaker, that is an important question. Bill C-27 needs consistent, technologically neutral and future-proof definitions both to the consumer privacy protection act and the AIDA within Bill C-27. It should provide definitions for AI or algorithmic systems that are cohesive

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022  Madam Speaker, that is also an important question, because I think what the member did not reference, which I will reference specifically, are the instances where governments used this information. I think that informed consent is an inherent right to privacy and protection. Th

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022  Madam Speaker, I am sure the hon. members from the other side are about to take some good notes on the recommendations we put forward. They are probably discussing among themselves how they can improve upon these serious gaps and have some public engagement on this. We are not s

Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022  Madam Speaker, I will be sharing my time with the wonderful member forRosemont—La Petite-Patrie. I am grateful for the opportunity to rise today on Bill C-27, which is an act to enact the consumer privacy protection act, the personal information and data protection tribunal act

John C. Holland Awards  Mr. Speaker, as we gather in our communities to celebrate Black History Month, I proudly rise today, as a past recipient and past co-chair, to recognize the current board members, volunteers and community sponsors of the John C. Holland Awards, hosted annually by the Hamilton Bla

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I am going to ask the hon. member to reflect on the fact that we have a Prime Minister who campaigned on stopping for-profit care, but then did just the opposite. He flip-flopped. He called Conservative premiers' for-profit corporate care “innovation”. Even his own

Petitions  Mr. Speaker, the last petition, e-petition 3777, initiated by Henry Evans-Tenbrinke from Hamilton, is in relation to the Australia, United Kingdom and United States military pact and the willingness of the U.S. to sell nuclear submarines and related military technologies to the A

Petitions  Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise today to present three petitions. The first petition, e-petition 3974, has been signed by Canadians across the country and highlights the fact that even though cannabis is legal in Canada, far too many people remain penalized for historic cannab

Petitions  Mr. Speaker, the second petition, e-petition 3775, has the support of 1,345 Canadians and is an important reminder that there is an ongoing humanitarian catastrophe and illegal war unfolding in Yemen. This petition calls on the government to immediately cancel all active and pe

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I rather enjoy the hon. member for South Shore—St. Margarets. We get along famously. We have ongoing conversations in this House. He talked about the poor Liberal mathematics. I will find some common ground first. I would agree, and I will put this on the table, that
