Health committee  Good morning. Thank you for inviting us to be here to present to your committee. I'd first like to thank MP Raj Saini for all the incredible work that he and his office have done to bring this study to light. I really appreciate it. It's many years that I've been working

Information & Ethics committee  I'd like to share my time with MP Erskine-Smith.

Ethics  Mr. Speaker, major ethical lapses are a hallmark of the Liberal government. Today, we learned that Raj Grewal, the former member for Brampton East, has been under RCMP investigation for months in connection with millions of dollars in gambling activity using suspect funds

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Thank you. I find it interesting to note that on this line of questions, my colleagues from the Liberal Party have voted against the minister being sworn in under oath. We will go back to the resources that are allocated as part of the supplementary estimates for MP support. I

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Again, related to the resources allocated to MP support, has the minister, minister's staff or any member of the Department of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship been requested to provide documents to the RCMP in relation to the investigation related to MP Raj Grewal?

Budget Implementation Act, 2018, No. 2   about real Canadians who are suffering profound difficulties. I have spoken in the House about John, a senior who has ended up homeless and is in a homeless shelter now because of the lack of affordable housing in the country. I have talked about Heather. I have talked about Raj

Citizenship and Immigration committee  , of course, was deported from Canada 13 years ago because of serious criminal allegations, including human smuggling. He was able to enter Canada again recently due partly to a letter of support from MP Raj Grewal. I understand that your department has promised MP Judy Sgro that you would

Information & Ethics committee   that by combining this activity, the more outreach and education you do, especially for MPs, the more dramatically you will reduce the questions and some of the investigations that you may undertake. Is there an efficiency subset to this process? The more you educate and the more outreach

Information & Ethics committee  Now that you've developed these programs, do you think that the collaboration between your office and the Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying will result in more enhanced information and more enhanced tools for new MPs after the next election?

Foreign Affairs committee  Thank you very much. I will share my remaining time with MP Wrzesnewskyj.

Proceedings of the House and Committees   in order to make a living. I was speaking with one of the small business owners in my riding, a franchisee of the OPA! of Greece restaurants. I think it is timely since it is the Orthodox holiday now. This gentleman, Raj Chahal, who is obviously not Greek, owns these restaurants. He

Information & Ethics committee   to address the comment that MP Barrett made about blaming the Prime Minister. I view life in terms of taking responsibility and being held accountable. We're all accountable for our actions. And the Prime Minister, like all of us, is. If I made an error, my parents taught me

Business of Supply   of staff Katie Telford's husband works for? What about the former Liberal Raj Grewal who allegedly received $6 million that he did not disclose to the Ethics Commissioner? Documents also claim that he solicited funds by deceit, falsehood or other fraudulent means in connection

Business of Supply   it leads us to conclude that he was involved and did do that. Another issue at hand is ventilators. Former Liberal MP Frank Baylis received a contract for about a quarter of a billion dollars to build ventilators that, by the way, are not approved by any jurisdiction in Canada

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I agree with Mr. Waldman that perhaps an ombudsman is what's required. I don't think MP resources should be utilized to do status checks. With regard to what Mr. Waldman's reference to the court, that's called a mandamus application. Our office probably files about 50 or more
