Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my friend for Lethbridge. She is a great champion of freedom. In short, there is no evidence that the Liberals have tendered. The ball is in their court. Where is the evidence? There is no evidence. What they are more interested in doing is playing COVID the

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of our Conservative motion calling on the NDP-Liberal government to immediately lift all federal vaccine mandates. When one listens to the members opposite and their friends in the NDP, we hear it is all about science, and that they are foll

Health  Mr. Speaker, Canadians want to take back control of their lives, yet millions of Canadians are unable to travel freely within Canada, unable to get on a plane, unable to get on a train, because of the Liberals' punitive and ineffective vaccine mandates. This infringement on mobil

Oil and Gas Industry  Mr. Speaker, Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine is being fuelled by European dependence on Russian energy. As Europe and much of the world searches for alternatives, Canada should be part of the solution. The only thing standing in the way is the Liberal government and its war

Victims Ombudsman  Mr. Speaker, once again, the Liberal government is demonstrating that victims of crime are a low priority for it.

Emergencies Act  Mr. Speaker, the member is quite right that the conditions that must be satisfied in order to invoke the Emergencies Act were not met and were not even close to being met. Member after member on the side opposite, and their friends in the NDP, downplay and minimize the exceptiona

Emergencies Act  Madam Speaker, my colleague from Terrebonne very eloquently expressed the reasons why the threshold has not been satisfied under the Emergencies Act. What we have instead is an unprecedented overreach on the part of the government that threatens the foundations of democracy. As t

Emergencies Act  Mr. Speaker, the hon. member claimed that I was taking a photo with swastikas and that is an absolute—

Emergencies Act  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw the comment.

Emergencies Act  Madam Speaker, this legislation, the Emergencies Act, has been on the books for 34 years and it has never been invoked. The hon. member gave a 20-minute speech but not once did he talk about the legal threshold that must be satisfied, namely that the emergency is a situation that

Emergencies Act  Madam Speaker, the member for Shefford spoke thoughtfully about how we got here. She alluded to comments the Prime Minister made, casting a broad brush to all of the folks who came to Ottawa and the millions of Canadians who supported them. Would she agree that the Prime Minist
