Government Business No. 34—Proceedings on Bill C-62 Madam Speaker, it is possible that my colleague misunderstood me. What I said in my speech was that I voted for Bill C-14 because it was a reasonable response to what had to be addressed, which was the Carter decision. The reasonable foreseeability of death was a problem clause,

Government Business No. 34—Proceedings on Bill C-62 Madam Speaker, it is quite difficult to follow the incredible words we just heard from the member for Cariboo—Prince George.

Bill C-372 Mr. Speaker, this week, the member for Timmins—James Bay revealed the depths of his diabolical penchant for thought control and his yearning for totalitarian power when he tabled his laughable yet chillingly Orwellian bill that would actually put people in jail for saying things

Taxation Madam Speaker, on April 1 this Liberal-NDP government is going to automatically raise the tax on beer, wine and spirits for the eighth year in a row without even a vote from elected MPs. When a simple treat like sharing a bottle of wine with a loved one becomes unaffordable, Ca

Carbon Pricing Madam Speaker, yes, indeed, this parliamentary secretary and I did go to university together. As a former Calgarian, she is in a unique position to know, if she has any connection left to the city, just how extraordinarily unpopular her government and its carbon tax policy are in

Taxation Mr. Speaker, after eight years, more than half of all Canadians are struggling just to cover their mortgage, rent, food, home heating and gasoline. Taxes and the inflation caused by taxes, wasteful spending and deficits are crushing Canada's middle class and those desperately try

Chemical Weapons Convention Implementation Act Madam Speaker, in response to the question from the member for Winnipeg North, I do not even know what to say.
