Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, it is certainly important to have the best transparency we can expect. Unfortunately, we are faced with a wall, which I would call a wall of darkness, from the government. We need to know if the right decisions have been made, especially in ensuring that the health

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, that was an excellent speech by my colleague from Alberta. Essentially, he told us that our most important job here in the House is to be here for Canadians and implement effective measures to fight the pandemic. That is exactly what we are talking about today. Bas

Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate my colleague on his speech and his contributions to the committee. Opposition members are responsible for making sure that the government's pandemic response is up to the task of helping families, businesses, and people who are isolating

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, we can see that the pandemic is an excuse for everything. The Liberals want to use it to hide their scandals and corruption. They have been found out. What are they doing? They want to trigger an election. There have been quite a few scandals and close friends who c

COVID-19 Emergency Response  Mr. Speaker, we know that the Liberals' border management is a big disaster, but that is how the virus is getting into the country. American millionaires in private jets are being allowed to enter the country's three hot spots. Why the double standard? Why do Canadians have to

The Environment  Madam Speaker, the second wave is upon us, our restaurants are closed, and now we have the Liberals playing Don Quixote. Alliance Polymères Québec says the Liberals are sweeping the problem under the rug by not focusing on managing end-of-life plastics, which can potentially be

Resumption of Debate on Address in Reply  Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for the question. Obviously we are in favour of reliable, predictable transfers in health. That would allow us to support the provinces, especially during a pandemic. What I was explaining in my speech is that given the Liberals' irresponsible

Resumption of Debate on Address in Reply  Mr. Speaker, Conservatives certainly are champions of maintaining Parliament and having committee debates. Unfortunately, as we know, my colleague's government shut down Parliament. We feel that only four hours of debate for $50 billion of investment in the Canadian economy is no

Resumption of Debate on Address in Reply  Mr. Speaker, it is very simple. The core and main goal of our Conservative approach is to support Canadians now and later. Recently, we saw the Liberal government cutting debate, shutting down the House and preventing us from putting efficient measures in place to support our col

Resumption of Debate on Address in Reply  Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to participate virtually today. I would like to take this opportunity to say hello to my House of Commons colleagues and everyone following our proceedings. I would like to point out that I am taking part in today's proceedings from the city of Lévis, wh

2020 Pléiades Awards of Excellence  Mr. Speaker, the pandemic will not stop the dynamic Lévis chamber of commerce from celebrating the outstanding achievements of its local businesses. Over 1,000 people participated in the 2020 Pléiades virtual awards gala, which was broadcast by Groupe Satir studios. I want to co

Access to Information  Mr. Speaker, who said that there was no human-to-human transmission of COVID-19, that people did not need to wear masks and that we did not need to close our borders? The government. Was any of that true? Sadly, no, and now we are paying the price. Now the Liberals want to make

Foreign Affairs  Mr. Speaker, if the Liberals are so deeply concerned, why are they opposed to a group of Canadian parliamentarians looking into human rights in Hong Kong at the Special Committee on Canada-China Relations? Freedom of expression is important, especially during a pandemic. In 201

Proceedings of the House and Committees  Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask my colleague from La Prairie a question. Does the hon. member support the Conservative Party motion that is specifically designed to improve the Liberal programs? The hon. member mentioned in his speech that the Liberal measures are too weak, to

Public Safety  Mr. Speaker, I agree with my colleague that we should make our communities safer. That was our slogan in 2006. I agree with him that firearms owners, whether they are sport shooters or hunters, are law-abiding citizens. Why go after and harass them with costly and ineffective
