Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, what businesses want are details, as I said early on. I did not give an exhaustive list of the programs that were introduced this year. Some of them have been helpful and some of them held promise, but were introduced too late or with details that were light. Of th

Bravery  Mr. Speaker, I am rising today to bring a display of bravery of a very high order to the attention of the House. On the evening of August 7 of this year, at the Newboro lock station in the Township of Rideau Lakes, lockmaster Dylan Carbino was taking a phone call when he notice

Ethics  Madam Speaker, I thank the parliamentary secretary for his comments. This government has clearly been in no hurry to pass legislation. The official opposition asked the government to have regular sittings in a hybrid format throughout the summer, and that the House not rise for

Ethics  Madam Speaker, it has been a bit of a custom of mine over the last couple of weeks, during Adjournment Proceedings, to bring good news to the House, and tonight is no exception. My sister and her husband, just last week, welcomed their first-born. Beatrice MacDonald was born to

Ethics  Now I do want to talk about time, and I thank my colleague for mentioning that. For over 40 hours, we had Liberal members filibuster committees to prevent the truth. Opposition members wanted to continue the work that parliamentarians had agreed to undertake during the beginning

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I appreciated the member's example about the disabled individual who had a very different experience than a Canadian without a disability might experience. I heard a similar story about an individual who, it was apparent, had a physical disability and when sufferin

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, we know the Prime Minister's usual reaction when the RCMP come calling with questions about his corruption or ethical breaches of his Liberal colleagues. He rips the phone out of the wall and locks the door, blocking them at every step. Last week, we heard from the

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister does not need to take my word for it. Conservatives are not making it up. It is the lobbying commissioner who has said that there are RCMP investigations into illegal lobbying by the government. It is clear that Liberals play fast and loose with th

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, the government had an obligation to review their initial medical assistance in dying legislation, but tells us that COVID-19 is the reason those reviews were not completed prior to passing this legislation. However, instead of challenging the decision of the court,

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, the parliamentary secretary raised the issue of offering MAID. In that initial period, access to palliative care is limited or not offered to many. We have heard that the government has made investments in palliative care, but they are not enough. Before there is an

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to rise and speak today for those who cannot, people who have been marginalized and whose voices have been silenced and cast aside by the governing class. They are those those would be victimized by Bill C-7. I would like to talk about the calls and t

Foreign Affairs  Madam Speaker, I will start by thanking the hon. member, my colleague for the good wishes of mazel tov. I will certainly convey those to my wife, Amanda. My question, then, to the member is why vote against the motion that would have called for concrete action? It would have cal
