Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, earlier this week—

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, my colleague talked about efficiencies in terms of the fight against climate change. I am going to quote from an Edmonton Sun article. It says, “Answering in question period Wednesday on behalf of an absent Prime Minister...[the member for Edmonton Centre] suggeste

Privilege  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a question of privilege. Let me begin by emphasizing that I have deep respect for the Speaker's office and for parliamentary procedure. Every point contained herein is made out of a desire to uphold the rules of Parliament and to bolster public faith in Can

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, after eight years, the Liberal carbon tax was supposed to lower greenhouse gas emissions, but after eight years they are higher than ever, and the cost of fuel and groceries is unaffordable. After eight years, the Liberals were supposed to have alternatives to carbo

Privilege  Mr. Speaker, I rise today on a point of order to briefly provide additional information on the question of privilege I raised yesterday. I would like to point out that the government failed to disclose over $200,000 in costs incurred for the Prime Minister's ski trip to Montana,

Privilege  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a question of privilege regarding a response to Order Paper Question No. 1417 and one additional matter with regard to the same. Out of respect for the time of the members present, I will not read the entirety of the question put to the government; instead,

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I agree with the member's sentiment. Many colleagues in here have talked about how the bill does not have an adequate and comprehensive enough list of what should be included, in terms of convictions or areas of conviction, from a mandatory perspective on the nation

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, Western University's brief has a pretty good outline of what some of the definitions of these are, and I would go back to it, as it has been thought about. I think there are two dozen references of other literature in there that I would draw my colleague's attention

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, it is not a comfortable topic for me to discuss, but I have been victimized online. I try not to make debates about me in the House because I represent 120,000 other people. However, if I saw something like this of me spreading and going viral online, through Telegr

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I would first like to say that I will be sharing my time with the member for Abitibi—Témiscamingue. There has been a lot of debate on this topic. I would like to present something to all political parties that has not been discussed in this House, which I really fee

Public Safety  Madam Speaker, admittedly, it is a little concerning to hear that the government is still consulting and working on the buyback program and does not have clear direction for the House, given that we are about 30 days out from the amnesty expiring. Even when talking about firearms

Public Safety  Madam Speaker, I believe that the Minister of Public Safety was appointed to cabinet about two months ago, so my question is whether he has received his mandate letter yet from the Prime Minister. Particularly, if he has received the mandate letter, could he provide the House wit

Committees of the House  Mr. Speaker, on decorum, I think it has been a weird, unexpected few days in here, and I would just like to remind colleagues that there are reasons why people are dragged into your chair, albeit they have probably changed over time. I know that I would not want to have to sit i

Rick O'Brien  Mr. Speaker, I move for my colleague from Winnipeg to continue to be heard.

Apology by the Speaker  Mr. Speaker, as chair of the Canada-Slovakia parliamentary friendship group, it is my obligation to point out that the individual in question who was recognized on Friday was part of the division that was used against the Slovak National Uprising, which was the military uprising
