National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act  Mr. Speaker, there is no doubt that we do a lot of trade with China. The imports and exports are very important for our economy. This new bill should include the acquisitions of any foreign state-owned enterprise. We cannot just rely on the fact that a company is worth $500 mil

National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act  Mr. Speaker, the Conservative Party supports a strong economy and well-paying jobs for all Canadians, regardless of their ethnicity or anything else, in all parts of our country. That is key. However, we believe that we perhaps need to look for other sources and other purchasers,

National Security Review of Investments Modernization Act  Mr. Speaker, what should the number one job of a federal government be? I have always told my constituents that it is national security, our safety and security. Last night, as I was preparing my remarks, I asked Dr. Google what the top priority should be for a national governm

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the minister should know that British Columbia has received zero back in tax rebates from the federal government. After eight years of the Prime Minister, everything is more difficult. In Surrey, a thousand Indo-Canadian owner-operators met to protest that the Libera

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, after eight years of the current Prime Minister, British Columbians are really struggling. Liberal policies have pushed home, rent and fuel prices through the roof. We pay the highest prices in North America. Gas is projected to hit $2.65 a litre this summer. The Lib

Immigration and Refugee Protection Act  Madam Speaker, as mentioned, Conservatives are supportive of this legislation, but the challenge we have is the difference between words and implementation. I think of how the terrorist Omar Khadr was given $11 million, and we rolled out the carpet. He killed an American sergeant

Immigration and Refugee Protection Act  Madam Speaker, I wonder if the member could inform us how this bill, Bill S-8, might impact someone like Jihadi Jack. He is a British terrorist who fought with ISIS in Syria and said he would be happy for martyrdom by cutting off people's heads, including his friend's, for being

Information & Ethics committee  Thank you. We are the ethics committee. We're talking about contracts and about some serious breaches. I'm speaking about a trend. That's one of the reasons I brought this up. We're talking about this one minister who has spent a very significant amount of his budget on social

Information & Ethics committee  I do appreciate your comment to Mr. Green regarding one possibility of even a box to check or some sort of verification. I think that would be very helpful. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Information & Ethics committee  Thank you. Mr. Stewart, when did you become the deputy minister for international trade?

Information & Ethics committee  Okay. You said there were two sessions that were provided, for $23,000. Can you tell us how long each session was?

Information & Ethics committee  Can that information be provided to the committee?

Information & Ethics committee  Okay. That's something we're interested in knowing. Last year, you were testifying about the implementation of the Emergencies Act, and you said that the Minister of Public Safety was misunderstood when he said in his comments that the police asked for the implementation of the

Information & Ethics committee  So you don't agree or disagree that Minister Ng was in violation of the Conflict of Interest Act.

Information & Ethics committee  Okay. There have been many less serious situations when ministers have stepped down. One that comes to mind when the Conservatives were in power was when one of our ministers had a $16—or maybe it was $18—orange juice. It was just about public perception and propriety. Just fr
