The Economy  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister has raised taxes on businesses, on individuals and on almost everything we purchase, yet his promised infrastructure spending is non-existent. This year's deficit is more than triple what the Prime Minister promised it would be. Oil prices are bott

Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, a lack of new pipelines necessary for Canadian oil to reach global markets has created a serious crisis in Alberta. With oil being sold for pennies on the dollar, the no more pipelines bill, Bill C-69, will be the final nail in the coffin for the industry. When wil

Canada's Oil and Gas Sector  Mr. Speaker, I genuinely believe, in my heart of hearts, that everything might have been in place, but the reality is that there are no shovels in the ground. There is no sight of any shovels in the ground. It was a failure in the consultation process. Once again, it is complete

Canada's Oil and Gas Sector  Mr. Speaker, I think a big part of being a parliamentarian is taking responsibility. That stands not only with us as parliamentarians but with governments as well. I, for one, am sick and tired of the Liberal government attempting to blame its incompetence and inaction on the pre

Canada's Oil and Gas Sector  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for those excellent insights. I would respond by saying that the world is hungry for ethical oil, oil that is extracted to the highest environmental standards. This is a demand that is not going away and that will only, in fact, increase. What t

Canada's Oil and Gas Sector  Exactly. Mr. Speaker, they did not buy it for a minute, because actions speak louder than words. The actions of the current government have shown over and over again that it is the one that created this pipeline differential crisis by not doing the things to ensure that our produ

Canada's Oil and Gas Sector  Mr. Speaker, I will be splitting my time with the member for Aurora—Oak Ridges—Richmond Hill. I am very sad to be here this evening. I am sorry that we have to have this debate once again. It is certainly no secret that the last few years have been very hard in Alberta, not ju

Royal Canadian Mounted Police  Mr. Speaker, the Liberal member of Parliament for Brampton East resigned last week citing personal reasons, but over the weekend the PMO's official story has changed several times. Every time it has changed, the details have become more concerning. It was finally revealed that th

Democratic Reform  Mr. Speaker, intelligence officials in the United States have released detailed reports on Russian interference in its 2016 election. There is absolutely no reason why Canadians should not expect the same level of transparency from their government, especially on an issue as fund

Democratic Reform  Mr. Speaker, the Liberals have confirmed that Russia meddled in Canada's 2015 election, but they refuse to provide any details. Canadians have the right to know. The government must tell us how Russia interfered and who was targeted.

Democratic Reform  Mr. Speaker, so far, Canadians have been saddled with an electoral bill that favours the Liberal government, a debate commissioner to rig the leaders debate in favour of the Liberal government, and now an attempt to bribe the media with $600 million in an election year. When wil

Democratic Reform  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister is clearly determined to rig Canada's next federal election. He amended the legislation so people could vote without identification, and he is doing nothing to address the problem of foreign influence in our elections. Also, the way he is setting t

Calgary Stampeders  Mr. Speaker, a poem: It's my favourite time of year, when Stamps fans get to loudly cheer. Because we always pass the test, Calgary is the best team in the west. Jerome will rush. Marquay will score. Marken will have us screaming more. Down the QE2 we'll soar, to go to vict

Trilateral Commission  Mr. Speaker, the Trilateral Commission was established in 1973 to foster closer co-operation among Japan, western Europe and North America. It is a non-governmental policy-oriented forum that brings together leaders from the worlds of business, government, academia, media and civ

Criminal Code  Mr. Speaker, I cannot think about Bill C-75 or genocide without thinking about the work done by my colleague from Calgary Nose Hill. I can honestly say that our party supports victims of genocide, including women. As I said before, I cannot support Bill C-75, because that would b
