Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, today the price of western Canadian oil is some $20 less than the market price and shamefully our colleagues in the NDP applaud that.

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, the member is on the justice committee. I happen to serve on the justice committee. I saw the Liberal members fight this right to the very end. Now they seem to be standing in this House taking credit for this initiative. Had the opposition critic for justice and

Committees of the House  Mr. Speaker, sadly, I am standing here tonight to speak to this motion.

The PMO did not have the courage to tell the member for Cambridge that we are not going to support his bill. Despite all of the support of government member
