Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Madam Speaker, I was still on the definition issue with the government, and there is nothing in the budget to ask for.

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Madam Speaker, of course, the housing crisis is a devastating situation, and it is heartbreaking to see a lot of Canadians who cannot find houses.

Budget Implementation Act, 2023, No. 1  Madam Speaker, economists are telling us that Canada is on the brink of a recession, and the response of the Liberal government is to offer us a grim budget.

The Budget  Madam Speaker, would the member be able to advise us on the debt service interest and he how he sees it going forward? It would be nice to know the exact number based on the budget. How does he see things developing further in the future?

Canada Business Corporations Act  Madam Speaker, Canada is a safe haven for money laundering. It is a known fact, and it is getting worse by the day.

Online Streaming Act  Mr. Speaker, every time someone disagrees with the government, its members call them on integrity, where integrity really is not a favourable commodity on that side, since they took office in 2015.

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I will be splitting my time with the hon. member for Selkirk—Interlake—Eastman. The title of Bill C-41 is a bland one, an act to amend the Criminal Code and to make consequential amendments to other acts, but the impact on people's lives is exciting. This bill is

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, I will ask a question of the hon. member. She finished on a collaborative tone, as far as working together in this specific area goes. I do not believe any of us would disagree on what we need to do when it comes specifically to Afghanistan. However, my question i

Criminal Code  Madam Speaker, this has nothing to do with the debate. The chamber is cold and I was wondering if the air conditioning can be turned down a little so we can continue.

Freedom of Religion  Madam Speaker, representatives of Open Doors Canada came to Parliament Hill this week to highlight the 2023 World Watch List of the 50 most dangerous countries in which to live as a Christian.

Online Streaming Act  Madam Speaker, this bill has gone back and forth in the House for a long time. the NDP's position before was completely different from what it is today. I would ask the hon. member to tell us what kind of revelation happened for New Democrats to have changed their minds all of
