Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  Madam Speaker, actually, it is not up to government to build houses. It is up to the marketplace to build houses.

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  Madam Speaker, I appreciate your defending me there, because there is a lot of battering coming from that side.

First Nations Resources  Mr. Speaker, for hundreds of years, first nations have suffered under a broken colonial system that takes power away from their communities and places it in the hands of politicians in Ottawa. The Indian Act hands over all resource land and money to the federal government. This

Combating Motor Vehicle Theft Act  moved for leave to introduce Bill C-379, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (motor vehicle theft). Madam Speaker, I think that people in my constituency and right across Canada are going to be very happy with this motion. This is something the Conservatives are going to take acti

Carbon Tax  Mr. Speaker, while common-sense Conservatives will axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime, the NDP-Liberal Prime Minister is not worth the cost, crime or corruption after eight years. A typical family of four will now pay $700 more in groceries in 2024 b
