Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I am baffled as to why members of the NDP are consistently supportive of the Liberals. It is really interesting to watch, actually, because on one side of their face, they support the Liberals and all they do, and on the other side, they go after them. What is goin

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, indeed, the member is an honourable one, so we can call him that. The member is asking a very good question and is making my point exactly. It seems rather ridiculous to be applying a carbon tax to something that people must use. In Canada, we do not really have a

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I will be splitting my time with the member for Beauce. When I was first elected to this place, after about a year’s time, I was approached by a member of the Liberal Party. He came to me and he was trying to make chit-chat. He took an interest in my riding and as

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, I think we have once again an example of an individual across the way representing her party using talking points that are supposed to somehow pacify Canadians. The talking points do not fix reality. The talking points do not help the individual who cannot afford th

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, I thank the member across the way. He finally gave an honest answer and said it is bad.

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, honestly, we have such an honest answer in the one the member across the way just gave, that the carbon tax is bad. I agree with him wholeheartedly: It is really bad. It is doing absolutely nothing to save the planet, but it is doing a whole lot to punish Canadians.

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, the fall economic update in and of itself likely does not capture a whole lot of hoopla in this place or outside this place. However, I believe this statement is meant to be visionary in nature, or at least a budget is, and then the fall economic statement is meant t

Fall Economic Statement Implementation Act, 2022  Mr. Speaker, sadly, no. We repeatedly hear from the Liberal government that it has Canadians' backs. We hear this phrase quite often in this place and outside this place. It is a term the Prime Minister likes to use almost incessantly. The question is, does it really have their

Points of Order  Madam Speaker, earlier today, I called the Minister of Public Safety a liar. I should not have done that. Instead, I should have said that he misled the House. I apologize.

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, despite being absolutely useless, the government insists on tripling the carbon tax. When taxes go up, the money in bank accounts of Canadians actually goes down. It is basic math and logic. Welcome, folks. In order to try to make ends meet, moms are actually wate

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, here is the problem with that. Since the Liberals took power and imposed the carbon tax, emissions have actually gone up, not down. I do not know how those constituents are being helped by this, aside from paying a whole lot of money to get a whole lot of nothing.

Jewish Refugees  Mr. Speaker, today is Jewish refugee day. On this day, we commemorate the nearly one million Jewish refugees who were forcibly displaced from Arab countries and Iran between the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. For centuries, large Jewish communities lived in the Middle East, Iran
