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

Foreign Affairs  Madam Speaker, it is a pleasure to rise in this place and, as I did the last time I participated in Adjournment Proceedings, I have really great news, a very exciting announcement to share with the House and that is the birth of my son, Nathan. I am very excited. My wife, Amanda,

Ethics  Madam Speaker, I too trust the Ethics Commissioner, who twice found the current Prime Minister guilty of breaking ethics laws, with “The Trudeau Report” and the “Trudeau II Report”. The Prime Minister is now under investigation for a third time. We have a government that has bee

Ethics  Madam Speaker, it is a pleasure to rise today and address the matter that has really plagued this place and its members for some months now. No, I am not talking about COVID-19; I am talking about the cover-up that has followed the scattershot, at best, response by this governmen

Justice  Mr. Speaker, time and again we hear the Liberal justice minister use his tired lines about the totally non-partisan nature of judicial appointments under the Liberal government, but we know that is just not true. In fact, the opposite is true: judicial appointments are a very par

Justice  There it is, Mr. Speaker. The same minister has the same old lines from the same old story. The Liberals always put their Liberal friends at the front of the queue. It turns out Mathieu Bouchard, a key PMO player during the SNC-Lavalin scandal, continues to meddle in the affairs

Justice  Mr. Speaker, documents confirm that, because of “no caucus input”, appointments of at least 15 judges were stifled by the Prime Minister's Office. The Liberals have their hands on judicial appointments at every single step. Even Liberal MPs who do not show up for a year, like Nic

Ethics  Madam Speaker, a big difference is that when the member for Carleton filibustered it was to expose corruption. The Liberals are filibustering to hide their corruption. This week at the finance committee, the display by the member for Guelph where he likened the Bible, Torah, Qu

Ethics  Madam Speaker, does the minister agree that this language was wrong and that it was hurtful to Canadians of faith? Will he apologize to the House and ask the member to do that same?

Public Safety  Madam Speaker, these are not allegations raised by the opposition. These are raised by national security experts, CSIS and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and reported on by the free press, Global News and Sam Cooper. Mr. Cooper's journalism is exhaustive in his 20 pages that r

Public Safety  Madam Speaker, I would like to start with some very good news and that is the arrival of my nephew today, Santiago Barrett, the first-born to my brother Matt and his wife Sulin. I say congratulations to them and welcome to Santiago. It is really exciting news. We can hear the exc

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I am sure the member went to great pains to prepare the remarks he is continuing to read after the last point on relevance was read. However, the opposition day motion is not related to the speech he is continuing to read, even after my co
