Grocery Industry  Mr. Speaker, we stick up for Canadians every day on this side of the House. That is why our budget has measures in place to make sure that Canadians can get through this inflationary cycle. Let us take a look at what we have done on the tax front. We have permanently raised the

Finance  Mr. Speaker, I understand the challenges that Canadians are facing right now, and so does the government. We heard it right there, once again: the Conservative austerity caucus on overdrive. What would they cut, the Canada child benefit, which actually provides thousands of fami

Finance  Mr. Speaker, I respect the hon. colleague a great deal. He knows, like we do, that the inflationary cycle taking place in Canada is not a Canada-only phenomenon. Inflation is taking place across the world. Let us listen to the Governor of the Bank of Canada, Tiff Macklem, who sa

Finance  Mr. Speaker, I suspect that many people on that side were predicting that Stephen Harper would win the 2015 election. How did they get those predictions? On this side of the House, we are focusing on Canadians. We are making sure that health care is stabilized for a generation.

Housing  Mr. Speaker, the number one thing the Conservative Party of Canada could do to help with the affordability of housing for Canadians from coast to coast to coast is to stop grandstanding in this place and to actually support a budget that helps Canadians, with $4 billion for the h

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, for the Conservative leader to appear in front of the press and brag that his party is going to delay the debate on the BIA is the height of irresponsibility. The Conservative delays are holding up tax deductions and benefits for working Canadians. They are holding u

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for Fredericton for that excellent question. After more than 28 hours of delay caused by the Conservatives, the Standing Committee on Finance was finally able to refer Bill C‑47 back to the House. This bill will allow us to move quickly on getting

News Media Industry  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Pontiac for the question and her hard work. She is absolutely right. Facebook wants once again to bully Canadians and is now blocking news on its platform for many Canadians. That is schoolyard bullying. Facebook seems to think that Canad

Tourism Industry  Madam Speaker, I respect the hon. member, who is my tourism critic, but something does not add up. He voted against supporting the tourism industry in the budget, yet he voted for pricing on carbon in the last campaign. I do not know what they drink in Niagara, but I know—

Tourism Industry  Madam Speaker, I find it a little odd that the tourism critic for the Conservatives voted against supporting the tourism industry in the budget, yet he voted for a price on pollution when he ran in the last election. I am going to let him explain that to his constituents. I was

Tourism Industry  Madam Speaker, it is so nice to have so many friends from the blue team from Alberta in the chamber on a Friday. I can say to my colleague from Niagara Falls that, in this budget, $158 million is directly going to the tourism sector, and $1.8 billion will do exactly what he said

The Economy  Madam Speaker, I know personally that I could maybe lose five or 10, but when it comes to that member's question if they really want to help Canadians they would stop the filibuster in this chamber today. They could show up for work and make sure that the budget implementation ac

The Economy  Madam Speaker, if the Conservatives read the budget, they would see that there are measures to make sure that we reduce spending by $15 billion over the next years. Also, in the budget implementation act, we would be able to make sure that Canada worker benefits go to Canadians

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, I will answer the substantive matter of the member's question, but I want to take us back seven years ago and a day to when, for the first time in Canadian history, we raised the pride flag on Parliament Hill. We made history. We stood up for Canadians. Members fro

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, the hon. member opposite knows full well that if he wants to make life more affordable for Canadians, the Conservatives need only stop filibustering and simply support our budget implementation bill, which will ease the cost of living for Canadians. As for the pri
