Government Contracts  Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates adopted a motion forcing the government to impose fines in connection with the rental scandal. The Liberals broke the law by paying millions of dollars in rent for an empty building. Is the Prim

Government Contracts  Mr. Speaker, that same public works minister admitted that his Liberal friend broke the law. He admitted it twice even though he does not admit it now. Now our Commons committee wants that law enforced and wants those fines paid. The only question that remains here is whether th

Canada Health Act  moved for leave to introduce Bill C-414, An Act to prevent the Government of Canada from charging rent to non-profit hospitals. Mr. Speaker, this private member's bill would institute the principle in law that the federal government should not charge rent to our community hospit

Eastern Ontario  Mr. Speaker, the Liberal Party must really have it in for us folks here in eastern Ontario. First, the Prime Minister shortchanged Ottawa and other Ontario municipalities to pay for an enhanced deal for Toronto. Ottawa, including its suburban and rural communities, should get th

An Act to Authorize the Minister of Finance to make Certain Payments  Mr. Speaker, the hon. member spoke rather eloquently about Liberal theft, Liberal corruption, Liberal bribery and Liberal fraud, all of which have been a great cost to Canadian taxpayers. He is right. I would like to ask him about what I believe will prove to be one of the most

An Act to authorize the Minister of Finance to make certain payments  Mr. Speaker, on a point of order, the member repeatedly directed his comments straight over to the member over here without going through the Chair. We would urge all members to follow the Standing Orders and direct their comments through the Chair.

An Act to Authorize the Minister of Finance to make Certain Payments  Madam Speaker, I must really be on a roll if they are trying to interrupt me constantly. I am going to get right to the heart of the matter. This is a quarter billion dollar interest free loan to a nearly bankrupt American airline company, Delta. The Liberals gave a quarter bill

An Act to Authorize the Minister of Finance to make Certain Payments  Madam Speaker, I will draw my line in the sand. In fact, I will make a deal with this group of Liberals. I will stop calling them thieves when they stop stealing. That party has a record of corruption--

An Act to Authorize the Minister of Finance to make Certain Payments  It's worse. This time they gave, this is the anti-American Liberal Party, a quarter of a billion dollar loan to a nearly bankrupt American airline company. They gave nearly a quarter of a billion dollar loan to--

An Act to Authorize the Minister of Finance to make Certain Payments  Madam Speaker, we speak regularly on this side of the House, and quite rightly, about Liberal corruption, Liberal theft, Liberal fraud. We have to repeat ourselves often because that is often the only discussion item generated from that side of the House. This evening I am going

Supply  Mr. Speaker, no, I do not. I believe that all families regardless of income should have some support for child care in those crucial early years. I believe that those dollars should go directly into the pockets of parents. Instead of sending the dollars to bureaucrats and public

Supply  Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to speak in the House today in support of a motion that stands for the principles of parental choice and responsibility. Right now the Minister of Social Development has proposed a $10 billion to $13 billion day care scheme that will mean higher taxe

Committees of the House  Mr. Speaker, I noted the hon. member across the way responded with great fury once again to my earlier question. I pointed out that he was at the committee listening to the testimony of Information Commissioner Reid. The Information Commissioner exposed Liberal tricks and Liberal

Committees of the House  Mr. Speaker, the real reason why that member and the Liberal Party oppose extending Mr. Reid's work is that they recognize that Mr. Reid has done an exemplary job of exposing Liberal attempts to cover up corruption. The hon. member was there when Mr. Reid came before the governm

Committees of the House  Mr. Speaker, I know the member to be an advocate of accountability around this place. He has been a breath of fresh air in the House of Commons and in committees. We were sitting in the same committee meeting when John Reid testified. I remember his testimony to be one of the mo
